Default Hatch front clip = 4dr clip?

My brother-in-law just bought a '94 hatch, he is thinking of doing a front clip swap (bad damage on hatch) and he is wondering if the front clip on the 4dr is the same. Thanks.

Wider? News to me, I would think if anything that the hatch would have a little longer nose.

go look at a 4 door 5g vs. a 2 or 3 door 5g frontend. Very different. Headlights, corners, bumper, fenders...

yeah what he said you need fenders, hood, corner lights, bumper.

I saw it once on an autocross hatch. looked kinda neat.

The headlights are the same. The corners, fenders, hood, and bumper are different. I have a coupe bumper on my four door. I had to do some modifying though.
