Default Coupe front end on a Sedan

i recently hit another car costing me 1200 bucks to fix the passenger side fender and bumper, im not fond of the cheesing image it seems to have, and i was wondering if the coupe front end would fit on the sedan with no problems. Ne thing would be better then the mexican chrome holding in my lights and bumper on... id show pics if i had the energy to host them lol

Ya if u want coupe front end u cant just change out the bumper if u want it to fit like factory. Its better to change out the fenders as well

I dont think the coupe hood or fenders fit on the sedan. The corner lights on the coupe are also different. You can put the coupe front bumper on but it wont fit 100% perfect. The only way to get it to fit like factory would be to cut the front half of a coupe fender and weld it on to the back half of the sedan fender. Do a search and you should find a alot of pics of ppl using the coupe/hb bumper on their sedan.

^ are you saying to cut and reweld the 2 different fenders?! I don't think so...

but anyways...why not just get a JDM Ferio front end? Looks a heck of alot better then the 2/3drs in my opinon...

this is true. found out the hard way when i bought a carbon fiber hood and didn't specify coupe or sedan. It'll fit, but kind of looks like ***.

4 door fenders are longer, you would have to cut and weld to make it lookd good like someone else said.
