Recent accident, part matching between 02-05's
 

I drive a 2002 Civic EX coupe. Recently damaged front bumper, grille, and hood avoiding a child bicyclist on my home street. I've always been a fan of the smooth hood (as opposed to the lip at the bottom by the latch on my model) and all black mesh grill on the newer (03-05) 7th gens. From the basic research i have done all these repairs should be do able with the body pieces i find more appealing however are there any risks or problems you know of i may be overlooking.

Nope, new headlights (with brackets), bumper, hood, and fenders are all you need to swap them over. You will need to rewire your headlights, however, as the newer headlights have separate high and low beams, but the 01-03 headlights are one bulb .
