Re: Does 01 front bumper fit on 98 accord (Jaydeep)
I could be wrong about this, but I'm pretty sure the 98 - 00, and 01 - 02 are slightly different. Also, a front bumbper from a coupe wouldn't fit a sedan. However, remember that with finness, money and time...anything can be done.

The differences are just cosmetic ones. as long as you are staying with another sedan bumper then it should fit just fine.

yes, the 01-02 bumper fits on a 98-00 accord as long as they are the same (coupe and coupe, sedan and sedan).
the coupe and sedan bumpers can be interchanged but you will need to get the radiator support and a hood for the conversion to be complete.

I'm probably wrong here, but isn't the coupe hood longer than the sedan?
How difficult would it be to swap out the radiator support? Would I need to replace the radiator at the same time, or could I keep it?
And what about the fender? I'm pretty sure that there is a difference between a coupe and a sedan fender.
Thanks

I'm not completely sure if the coupe hood is longer than the sedan, but I do know for a fact that you will need the hood if you plan to do a bumper conversion (sedan ---> coupe and vice versa).
As far as the radiator support is concerned, I'm not too sure. I know that when people do the JDM type R conversion on integras, the existing radiatior support has to be removed and the new one welded on. Thus, I'm assuming it should be the same for the accords as well when doing bumper conversions. No, you will not need to replace the radiator.
The fenders I think you can leave. Most people on http://www.v6p.net have managed to keep their existing fenders. However, I still have doubts if my answer is correct or not. Sorry, I'm not 100% sure on this.

Have you tried CL for junked cars? I came across a great wrecked LX sedan last August which I got all the parts I needed and a few I don't need (yet). If I had the storage space I would taken the doors, trunk lid, and tail lights.
You may be better off just finding a junked '98 to '00 sedan or couple (whichever you have) and get those parts, that way you don't have to worry about those not fitting. A lot of times there are minor differences not everyone knows about.
