You didn't search hard enough or for the right things.

Do do this, you need to replace the corner lights, fenders, hood, and bumper.

Too many noobs. You dont' have to replace anything but the front bumper. It's slightly shorter than the sedan bumper, so it will rub against the corner lights and not reach all the way around to the edge of the fender, but it will fit if you can deal with a little bit of misalignment.

I like the sedan bumper personally. :D

I'm a noob because I like my car to look right and don't cut corners?

Ok .... whatever, slob.

No, you're a newb because the 2 door fenders don't simply bolt up to the sedans. Neither does the hood. You would have to do custom work on the fenders to get them to work, and it'd take a lot of time and money.

Most things that are done right do take time and money. It's how modifying a car works.

You can either do it right, or do it half-assed.

yea well ive tried to put a 2dr bumper on before and it doiesnt line up where the corners are, its too short and the corners stick out. the only reason that i wanted to know if i could do it os because i like the 2dr fogs better than the 4dr fogs, but its fine i had to get a new bumoer so i was jw ya know, but 4dr bumoer it is, besides i got to thinking and having a 4dr and trying tomake it somewhat jdm...a 2dr bumoer is IMO pretty ricey, so the verdict is 4dr bumper. bu thanks for all the input guys!
