It can be done but you need the hood,headlights and ,covers. You should already have three wider front fenders being an 86. This is to make it look right other wise slapping that bumper on now you will have a gap where the hood is.

Same bumper just the ae 84 bumper is a little different. As well as the ae has wider fenders.

84 to 86 bumpers are exactly the same.
You do NOT have to swap fenders for any year swap. (doing so on the 84/85 models would also make it look stupid).
There is some work required to the underpinnings.
