not 100% sure but i think all accords98-00 have the same bumper and the only differents between the coupe and the 4dr is the back bumper. the front one should be a direct replacement, and all the parts u need is the bumper..

Sorry, but that's completely wrong.

Coupes and sedans NEVER shared the same bumper. If you want to switch to the coupe bumper, then you also need to switch to the coupe hood. If you don't switch hoods you will have a gap between the bumper and hood.

This has been covered quite a few times...

You don't need the fenders... just the bumper and hood.

The one guy I know who did what you are asking about only had to change the bumper. (Assuming both cars are coupes.) AFAIK, every bolt and plastic clip lined up fine... and of course the bumper and hood matched as well.
