so much yes here.
looks like you have a set of nice new parts to start with. yes, the front fenders are different at the bottom rear. you are ahead of the game due to the fact you are aware of this. you will also need the outer rear quarter inner fender. i think one or both are nla. you can perhaps salvage them from your donor car? another piece of sheet metal you will need is the horizontal strip that is situated between the front bumper and the grill. the front tow hooks are different and will need to be modified before you can mount your bumper. when you compare both cars, you will see what i mean.
the front lower area of the rear quarters is going to be tricky to fab into the body. spend a lot of time reflecting on this before you make any cuts.
your side skirts are going to give you a head ache too. when installed, there will be a gap of about 20mm all along the bottom where they attach to the bottom of the rocker panel. the best solution i can think of is to actually modify the top of the skirt so the rest lines up.
post up a pic of your henna when you get the chance. there are hundreds of parts you are going to need off it. i would really like to see what you have to start with.
as you may have deduced, i am doing one of these as well. this thread as well as pm's can make a good knowledge swap for the both of us.
