A place near me sells brand new hoods, they have the Sedan and Coupe hoods listed seperately, and the Sedan hood is cheaper than the Coupe. Will i have any problems making it fit?

 

It'll bolt right on, but it won't fit perfectly. The front of it will overshoot the top of your front bumper by a couple of inches. Otherwise, it bolts right on and closes/open just fine.

 

no an eg sedan hood would not fit on an EJ, it won't look nice either

 

So which is it?

 

This is an old picture of my old EJ1 with a EG8 (4-door) hood. OH, I should tell you that with the original hood bump stops in place, it took a little more effort to get this hood to lock on to the latch. Removed the bump stops and things were kosher.

But I agree on it not looking very nice. Later, the hood pictured above was bolted to my buddy's EG8 sedan and fit like a glove.

 

Looks fine, worth saving $20 to me.

I could do the cool thing from 1999 and space the back of the hood to compensate.

Mine was spaced a little as is, and I had no washers back there.
