Just done my girlfriend's 95 wrx so I guess you may have come across the same issues I did.
No.1 A facelift front grille will only fit if you have the facelift bonnet. The angle of the bonnet dictates where the grill fits.
No.2 likewise the facelift lights (crystals) will only fit if you have the bonnet. Though people have put them onto non facelift bonnets (see mickywrx for details )
No.3 you can still retain the standard non facelift bumper in this process, which is why you see so many early classics with original bumpers but facelifted bonnets, grills, vents, lights etc.
