2001 edge - what front fenders fit?

The right front fender and right portion of my hood is faded flaking clear coat due to a old repair job. It is that island blue color. Local junkyard has a very nice (minor scratches no rust good paint) island blue XLT fender - will it fit? Can i transfer my factory fender flare over from my edge fender?

For future sake what years of rangers front fenders swap around?

Are all the ranger hoods swap-able? I may just paint mine flat black and call it good.(hood is boogered on donor truck)

I would do the Black thing, I would like a flat black hood and grille surround !

As far as I know the Hood will direct fit the 01-03 and other years with a grille change.

The Fenders fit from 01-11, barring any badging differences.

The EDGE Flares will fit the XLT Fenders except for the Holes needed for the EDGE Flares, and dependent on you getting the flares off the EDGE Fender without breaking the Clips. I have not been able to locate the Flares Clips and there are a lot of holes that I am not sure how to align.

IF you happen to find the Clips please post a link.

The Holes that were in my EDGE Bed, around the Wheel Wells, were all round.
The Clips had a round end but a pin with two side pieces that spring outward to hole the flare in place.

I had to reach under the truck, press upward on the inner fender well plastic and squeeze on the clips under they released, PITA !

I replaced my bed with a Steppie, I still haven't made up my mind if the flares even look good on the steppie bed but I do know the truck doesn't look right with just the front flares... !
My biggest problem with installing the flares on the Steppie is the number of holes needed around the opening.

Anyway, the sites I posted I have gotten clips from, I couldn't find the Flares Clips from them but things may have changed, I will have to check.

Again, if you find a source please post !
