Front bumpers...
 
...i know that sedan bumpers don't fit on 2dr and the hatch, but how hard would it be to make them fit?

you have to cut and weld/bondo the fenders. the larger portion closer to the doors will be the sedan fender, near the corner lights use the coupe/hatch fender. then you need coupe/hatch corners, lights, and front bumper (I think they all share hoods? :dunno: )

you could just slap on the coupe/hatch bumper, but it won't line up perfect.

I think that CashisEG8 did this to his ride. I think that he did some slight trimming to the front bumper to accomodate the longer corner lights that come with the sedan. The stock bumpers might be a little more forgiving since they're flexible and you might be able to "stretch" it the way you want it to go. But don't quote me on that though... :oh:

the coupe/hatch bumper is slightly more agressive, while the sedan bumper looks more plain in comparison (arguably). different fogs, too.

I've always associated it with the differences between the 96-98 civic and the 99-00 civic. the coupe/hatch is more 99 while the sedan is more 96.

so why the hell would you want to put a sedan bumper on a coupe/hatch?

:dunno: a different look? I've never seen it :p

this is the point I just realized he has a hatch, and he wants the sedan bumper. I thought it was vise versa :oh:

Hmmm... Interesting. I wonder if a sedan front would fit on a hatch/coupe without modification. :thinking:
