Default EG Civic front-end Conversion

I have a 94 Civic DX 4-Door and Im not a huge fan of the 4-door front ends.
Im Thinking about Converting to Coupe....Will it work?

Need: Fenders, Bumper, Corner Lights, Hood?, Anything Else?

Or Has Anyone Done it and Have Pics.?

Im pretty sure you can get away with just the Coupe bumper with some slight modification instead of buying all of those parts. Someone did a write up on it a long time ago... well not that long, let me see if i can find it.

Im tellin' you, someone took the coupe bumper and made a bracket that screwed onto the top and had a new hole that would line up with the 4dr fenders. Someone has to have seen the thread and know what im talking about.

the back of the fenders? what do you mean?

also, you don't have to switch the headlights if you plan on the conversion, they are the same.

Well, it was stated in a previous comment, "the front half of the 2/3 dr fenders 2/3 dr corners".....I work at a body shop so i was talking to one of the guys about it and he was questioning if the rear half of the fenders is the same in a 4dr as 2/3 dr....In some front end conversions, you have to use portions of body parts.
