will 2/3 door front end body parts fit on 4 door?
Hi, I just joined up here. I don't actually have a honda but my dad does, and I just wrecked it. It was a front end collision, I rear ended somebody cause I looked down to mess with the stereo and when I looked back up the person in front of me had stopped and I had no time to. Anyway, my parents are forcing me to fix the car. It needs a hood, bumper, both fenders, one headlight, a hose that goes to the power steering resevoir, an AC condensor, and the front bumper support. Anyway, when I try to find body parts for the car, most places say that they'll only fit 2 and 3 door civics, my dad's is a 4-door (it's a 94 DX, btw). Is there really a difference between 2/3 door bumpers, hoods, and fenders vs. the ones for 4-doors?
Also, while I'm here, I might as well ask if the bumper support (the thing that that the headlights, bumper, radiator, etc. bolt to) is even replacable? it appears to be tack welded, so would I have to weld a new one on?
one last thing, anybody know where I can some body parts for cheap? I don't really care if they're OEM, JDM, or aftermarket, but I don't have a whole lot of money to spend. my parents don't really care if the car is multi-colored or not aesthetically perfect, as long as it runs right (and it still runs fine), and is drivable. I don't have any money cause it's all being dropped into my car. 94 toyota celica GT that just got a custom turbo set-up installed
anyway, thanks for any help

gonna need more than just a radiator support put on that thing.
needs to be pulled a little bit.
look at the drivers side fender area, its bent over pretty good.
also, if you get all that straightened out, 2/3 door front can be put on the 4 door. you need the following.
2/3 door hood, fenders, bumper, turn signals. ive seen it done before plenty of times.
and a cheap place to get parts is ebay.
but once again, that thing looks pretty damn twisted up.
go buy a good rolling shell and swap the motor/interior into it.
you will save money in the long run
