EG 4DR to 2/3DR Front End Swap

I searched this a bit and couldn't find anything...

I'm curious, it it possible to swap a 2/3 door EG front end onto an EG sedan? I'm assuming it would be a simple, straightfoward swap (hood, fenders, bumper, headlights and corners), but does anyone have any first hand experience with this?

you have to weld the two fenders together in order for it to work...but looks so nice when done

You will have to keep the 4dr hood as its a tad longer then the 2/3.. need 2/3 dr fendors/bumper/corner lights and that should do it.

I was afraid of that... too much work.
