Default 4 door\hatch questions

Trying to decide between an EF hatch and an EF 4 door.

Are the front body panels on the 4 door and hatch the same(fenders, hood, etc)?

Are the suspensions the same front and rear(will full COs for a hatch work on a 4 door, sway bars, etc)?

Thanks.

I really like the idea of a sleeper 4 door, but need to know if everything I want to use will work.

You are right, 4 door panels are shorter. Been out the honda game a long time, I should have known this.

Go with a EF hatch. Much better & more parts available, besides weighs much less. If possible I'd look for a Si. Sunroof & top of the line Civic.

The Si hatch weighs almost as much as a sedan.
But yea go with a hatch.
