swap one for the other...

and then realize they hardly ever fit good unless you spent an hour aligning it. Even then there is still a gap.

Not only a gap but poor fitment all the way around.

No how-to really. Just bend the bumper support bars down, drill holes further back on bumper where it meets the fender (otherwise hole wont line up). Play around until you can get it at its best. Fitment will be hard to get perfect, these pics make fitment look better than it was.

Don't end sentences with prepositions.

It fits poorly all around because the sedan fenders and corner lights are different than the coupe/hatch parts. If you use coupe fenders, corner lights and a front bumper it'll look 100% fine.

I don't think the 2 door/hatch front bumper looks good on the 4D, however I have several pics of the conversion looking 100%. It does take lots of aligning, but overall it looks like crap
