Default '95 Honda Accord body parts question

I have a '95 honda accord which was in a wreck front end collision damage, fenders, headlights, hood, bumper all need to be replaced. I found a kit with most of the body parts, but its for a 96-97 are the parts interchangeable? If not anyone know where I can find a similar kit which has all the parts?

For the most part, 96-97 parts are the same as 95 or even 94 parts. The big key is that if you have a sedan (4 door) you need sedan parts.
I hope this helps.

The 96/97 parts will work on your 95.

If you need to replace the headlights in the future, you will need the 96/97 style. They were slightly different than the 95 in shape, so the hood and bumper is shaped slightly different.

OK so since I'm getting a 96-97 model bumper and hood for my 95 accord I need 96-97 headlights? but the fender hood and bumper WILL work with the car right?

I put a 96 bumper on my 95 and kept the original headlights and it definitely bolted on with no issues.. The bumper cover was off a bit from the headlights and replacing to 96 headlights depends on how much of a perfectionist you are with these items. I was broke and just needed it to work at the time.

Gotcha, thanks since I'm replacing pretty much the entire front end may as well make it perfect. thanks, now anyone know where to find smoked halogen headlights for a 96 honda accord? lol I have been scouring the internet but the smoked ones I found are all LED not halogen and my aunt specifically wants smoked halogen headlights.
