i've seen it done, and to be honest it looks really good, and i'm the type that is not into this headlight/taillight conversion thing, but it matches the body lines really well.

It's the same chassis, so it's pretty much a bolt on affair, fender probably have to be modified a little to clear at the top near the windshield, but nothing the body shop couldn't handle while painting it. I wouldn't go about half-witting it with a couple of your goon friends in the driveway, but it looks really good when done right.
Also, 4dr's with jdm front end
especially 4 dr integras.

for sure coupes and hatchbacks have the same headlights, clear corners, and hood. dunno bout 4door but i should of answered your question.
that looks like a carbon hood on that hatch in the picture, if you look at the top of the hood, you can see where they didn't paint part of it. so i am guessing it cf

Dx4dR93:Well I dont have any pics but I will tell you what they do make colored CF and that is definately NOT red fiber. Red cf is just tinted red from certain directions I will try to find out who makes colored cf

the carbon fiber itself isnt colored, they can put tints in the resin in just about any color.
That CF hood on that JDM Integy conversion is painted, it's a full color cf hood but he got it painted that way...
