Default 03 to 06 quarter panel compatibility?

So i have a black 2003 ram. I want an 06, but can't afford one. I do however work at a auto parts store where i can get parts cheap. Now my question is now, can you swap quarters, grill, headlights, and the bumper cover trim piece directly or is there some fanagling involved.

You can swap all of the things you listed. Some places have conversion kits for them even.
