Default Will 92-95 4 dr hood fit 92-95 hatch?

I've heard this both ways, and the part numbers are different, but will a 4 dr hood fit a hatch?
Anybody know how to do it?
Thanks,
Ron

you will have like half an inch of over-hang on the front. I know because my last hatch rocked a 4-door hood.

It honestly doesn't look that bad.

Yeah, I'd like to see those pics.
I can get a 4 dr hood for free, but a new 2dr is expensive.
It seems all the local 2 dr cars are hit in front.

Maybe it might be better to just break down and buy a new correct hood.
It's hard to turn down a free 4 dr hood though.

Getting a free 4 dr hood is nice.

BUT.

I say to just bite the bullet and buy a hood that will fit correctly. No use in trying to ghetto-rig your car and making it look like crap.

Yeah, I'm just going to buy new HB hood next week. This is a great 95 original car in great shape, except where someone put a dozen dents in hood. It looks like they maybe were sitting on it.
Only bad thing is the original red is in great shape execept for a little fading.
I might just leave the new hood in black primer for a while til I can paint the whole car.
Thanks for opinions guys.
