I was running fd taillights in my zl a few yrs back i just angle grinded the rear panel to fit the taillights not a pro job but worked you could probably unpick the rear panel off a zj zk fc fd & spot weld it to your fe after taking off the original one dont forget the wiring & globes which are wired to the tail lamps the light up nxt to the indicators

The fuel flap door will fit but from memory i snapped off 1 off the threads so it would fit (youll see what i mean when you do the swap)

 

When you change the boot trim to fd i think youll have a couple of holes exposed from where the fe one was i just kept the fe bootlid which did look a little out of place also are you keeping the fe rear bar or going xe rear bar? I put all the surrounding trim & xe bar on mine

 

 

Theres some pics of mine in the showroom under "show us ur fairlanes/LTDs
