Probably is possible, although i think you will have to change the lights and possibly the bonnet as well. Cost will be whatever the parts cost plus the labor charge, obviously. The FB15 isnt exactly a rare car, so a quick visit to delkanda parts places should get you an estimate of how much the individual bits cost.

rear lights and the boot lid to be added to the list. I heard there are place and people doing this as new shell prices are way higher than the old FB15 prices. However still after the conversion there would be enough hints to identify that this is a converted new shell, so be aware that you'll only get a new look and you might not get the expected market price of a genuine new shell model

AFAIK you can change the front like supra told but its very hard to set the rear beacuse the dicky door and the shape, its all bit different. Just ask those sparepart guys they will assist you....

I think the doors are bit different, there is slight change in the door, front fender side beedings, and the engine: old FB15 has the cable throttle and the new one has the E throttle!!!
