Default 2 Dr / 4DR front bumper fascia interchange ?

Howdy. New in these parts. hope someone can answer---
Are the front bumper fascias for the 2DR and the 4DR interchangeable ?
Just had a truck tire blow out in front of me and took a nice chunk out of the one on my 2006 4DR. Since I have always preferred the styling of the 2DR front end better, I thought since I gotta fork out some $, maybe I can make it a little more "fulfilling".

It LOOKS like they should be, but..... are they ?

Thanks in advance !

Well, that's 3 out of 3. Thanks for the info-- will save me some time and hassle. Sure would like it better. Oh, well. But, man ! I'd swear they would swap just looking at 'em!

different hood, different fenders, different headlights, different bumper, different grill, and different mounting locations for the mentioned different pieces.

and the sedan looks beautiful just the way it is. your idea sucks.

Type R conversion does not suck and it has been done before.

I agree--my idea does suck--for that kind of $ !!!

I am NOT a tuner / street racer / boy-racer--I'm an old guy, but have some cool lo-pro tires with nice rims, and a very subtle graphic along the rockers, front-to-rear. I LOVE the looks of this car--have had Porsches, a Benz, sold Ferraris, used to race Formula Ford, etc......no street car has turned me on like this one for centuries--plus I get 44 mpg on the highway, so I'm doing my part to shut down the crazoids !!

I can get a new cover for under $200, I have have a buddy who is a top-notch painter and does me right--so I'll just fix it and return it to original.

Over and out.

THANKS to ALL of you !

Supra guy is a moron. Nothing cool or smart about it. And I seriously doubt 190 mph, but whatever the speed--he's an IDIOT !!
