Default coupe/hatch headlights the same as sedan?

will the hatch/coupe headlights fit the sedan? and will the coupe bumper fit the sedan without much modification?

Headlights = yes, bumper = yes with modification

Cut the bumper in half (dead center) and roll out

the fenders are different for both bodystyles, so if you put the coupe bumper on, the sides won't mount 100%

are you sure the headlights from a coupe/hatch and sedan are interchangeable with each other?? I had tried sedan corners on the hatch... the corners were a bit longer and wouldn't fit; figured the headlights were going to be the same way so I didn't even mess with it.

Headlights are the same, but the corners are not.

yes the coupe/hatch headlights are the same. the corners however are different. the coupe bumper will fit the sedan but the sides wont line up. one way to make it line up perfect is to cut the front half of the coupe fender and weld it onto the back half of the sedan fender.
