Re: replacing front fasca possable?

yes , it should be pretty much a direct swap . a small PITA if you do it . with cost , labor , and repainting . maybe you could learn to like the fish [ think shark ] look .

Doing it yourself would not take much time or effort at all, bolt it on. A body shop will paint a bumper for around $200-250. If you like the earlier body style better (I sure do), it's worth the cost and effort.
