I have got a 85 cutlass that was recently stolen. i eventually got the car back but with no front end (e.i. fenders, hood, grille) so my question is what front end will fit? im thinkin a monte carlo clip would be nice or maybe something else. i dont want to modify anything lookin for a bolt on solution.

I think your options are 81-87 Cutlass or possibly 81 - 87 Regal. Regals and Cutlass' share the same doors therefore the regal front clip should work as the body lines from front clip will align with the doors.
 
I like mixing and matching body panels. My first car was an 80 2dr Diplomat and I put a 78 Volare front clip on it and it looked perfect. Think Monte Carlo with Nova front clip (if not familiar with Mopars). But... I have seen a cutlass with a Regal clip and it does not look right. It fits because the doors are the same. However, the wheel openings are totally different and it looks awkward.

if you wanna be different, how about an 87+ euro clip? The wheel wells would match. Hey, I just thought of it but I don't want to retype all of this. How about if you added a set of Regal flairs front and back? They might hid the differences and would look bad as hell.
