Default Aaah- But will it fit a 4DR sedan????

I want a SiR hood for my 1991-4DR but don’t care for the whole EF2 look. I’m just looking for that traditional SiR bubble. I found a thread stating that “headlights are different & "T" bar is also different" and "It's about an inch longer". Also in the FAQ I found "Interchangeable EF Hoods by part numbers" and mentions that no hood from a CRX/hatch will fit the sedan. (bummer)

Here are my burning questions:
1) What’s the difference between the hoods? (CRX/Hatch vs. 4DR sedan)
2) With the proper t-bar, will the SiR hood bolt on my 4DR?

Any thoughts on this?

I've seen this done, but alot has to be changed and you would end up just having the ef2 look.

difference between hoods is, the 4 door is longer.
talked with a guy who did this swap, he said he ended up changing the whole front end, he said the hood from the 4 door was longer so it wouldnt match up.

So... the 4DR hood is longer than the hatch.... And the SiR is longer as-well. Aside from the lights it should bold-up, right? Or is a 4DR even longer than a SiR hood???

I've got it backwards then - the SiR is shorter that the 4DR. Right? Does anyone have a real SiR hood bolted on? Would you mind taking a tape measure and measuring the underside from center to center? (length wise –front to back) I just want to see by how much.
