94 b3000 body questions

I had purchased a good used b-3000 mazda. i am a huge ford fan but was unable to pass up this deal and it is a ford with mazda's name on it so doestnt bother me too much.

My question is the original owner i beleive during ice storm slide the front passnager into something small and broke the headlight mouting assembly and the factory grill is cracked, and the fender is slightly tweaked which i dont plan to replace the fender.

Would a ranger headlight assembly fit this truck as well as a ranger grill? i dont think the grill is the same but i know headlight looks close to the same.

Any input would be much appreciate as it seems these parts are fairly hard to find.

also looking to buy a bug guard for it, will a ranger bug guard fit the truck? ebay has one i can get for around 25 ish, instead of 100 at any local dealer.

after doing more reasearch, it looks like the headlight may mount directly to the grill itself. which is probably what is making my headlight move

i can take my hand and with light pressure my headlight will rotate up and down probably 1/2 inch, which is alot for a headlight to move, and it mainly just falls forward, i only drive it at night usualy 1 or 2 miles so not a huge issue, but i do want to get this fixed,

Is there a good way to restore a headlight assemply to get ride of the yellow haze the headlights have acumlimated over the years , and would it be just some rubbing compound and good old fashion elbow grease to take care of the haze?
