Well they aren't exactly the same. The coupe hood is a bit longer from what I remember hearing. I've seen a coupe bumper on a sedan, but it had the coupe hood as well. So I can't say exactly what will happen if you try and put it on, ie if it will hit the bumper, etc, but I can say for sure they aren't the same dimensions.

Nope, I have a sedan, it's a WW kit. If I had a coupe I'd go for OEM though.

If you want to get the hood for the 4 door then get the bumper for the 4 door if you dont then it wont line up. Someone I know has a 4 door carbon fiber hood on a coupe it fits but you can see where the lines of the hood dont match the bumper.
