Can anyone tell me if it is possible (with a resonable amount of difficulty) to switch my '90-'93 style hood/bumper/lights to '94-'96.

Check the part numbers of the fenders. I recall someone said they are different. And lord only knows about what's underneath in terms of bracing and attachment points. The cars are very similar, but a couple of minor differences could create a lot of expense.

It might be more cost effective to buy a 1994-1996 Q45,

Too many differernces to make it worthwhile. The trim strips on the front bumper won't match up with those on the fenders and doors as they changed (both style and position) in 94. The bracing is different, the mounting holes are different, etc. Fenders are different as well. No interchangeability without major modifications.

Thanks guys, I was wondering because I smashed into a Crumaro(no structurtal damage, thank God) and was looking to get a body kit that I saw for a '94-'96, but wanted to know if it would fit (theorectically).
