Default Quarter panel fitment

Hey guys, new here. Got my truck into a wreck a few weeks back and I'm getting around to fixing the body damage. My truck is a 06 and I was able to snag a quarter panel from the salvage yard from a 02-05. Will this fit my truck? I thought I shouldn't have an issue, but the headlight portion kinda concerns me because they changed the headlight and front fascia for 2006. Just want to make sure its the same before taking mine off.

I think you meant to say front fender. No, the headlight and bumper is different.

Yeah, quarter panel usually denotes rear, if you are referring to front fender then no, you need to find an 02-05.

Yep, meant the front fender. My truck is after the face-lift, sorry for the confusion.

In this case, I don't think it would fit due to the headlight shapes being different.

For anyone still interested, it does not fit.
