Default C pillar and upper strut bar

A friend said that he'd give me a deal on a C pillar and upper strut bar. The thing is that he has a 91 hatch and I have an 88 rex. I was jwing if I could fit that onto my car. I know that most things are interchangible between the 2 cars. I'm just not sure about these.

I dont think they are interchangeable, but i may be wrong. I have a c-pillar bar on my 88 rex for one reason only. It stopped my hatch squeak and rattle that nothing else would. Didn't add any stability and is worthless in that regard in my opinion and several others. I painted it black to try and hide the ricer look when walking past HaHa.

The upper frt strut bar would fit and the rear most likely.

I called it rice look because I have a stock car for the most part and then had a big chrome bar in the back. Didn't fit well. Now it is flat black and you dont notice. Sorry I may have made that sound different. Now I sorta want to remove it again now that I have more suspension parts and see if it does make a difference. Maybe just mental, but I will have to wait till spring.

I dont think the c pillar bars fit. I have one and it will only fit on my dad's hatch.The front and rear strut bars should work. Give it a try
