The headlights are the same, the corner lights are different. The fenders are different and coupe/hatch fenders are too short to bolt on. Basically use the rear section of the sedan fenders behind the wheel opening and use most of the coupe/hatch fenders.

The rad support is the same. I believe the entire front of the car under the sheet metal is the same, I think the sedan doors are just placed slightly further back. Your only option is to modify fenders.

Keep the sedan hood, you're still going to need the extra length.
