Sedan/coupe-hatch Body Differences

[KScivic]

Sup? I just got a 93 Civic LX sedan, and I've been looking into aftermarket stuff to help clean up the looks. I noticed that the Coupe/Hatch have a different bumper than the Sedan. Is it possible to easily put a Coupe/Hatch bumper on anyways? I was wondering about the headlights and mirrors too.

By the way, if this needs to be moved to a different section please do so...

Headlights are all the same but the sedans corners,taillights,fenders,mirrors,doors(obvisouly ) are different than the coupe/hatch.The coupe and hatch share the same parts except the hatch tails are different.

i have a 93 civic lx sedan....after i got in an accident i opted to put on the coupe front bumper on my sedan. it fits fine.

Front end:
Headlights: Coupe = Hatch = Sedan
Front bumper: Coupe = Hatch, Sedan = different
Front corner lenses: Coupe = Hatch, Sedan = different
Mirrors: Coupe = Hatch, Sedan = different
Fenders: Coupe = Hatch, Sedan = different

Rear end:
Taillights: Coupe = Sedan, Hatch = different
Rear bumper: Coupe = Hatch = Sedan (I think)
Trunk: all different (duh)

The bumpers are slightly different in length between the sedan and the other styles- the side sections are slightly shorter on one of them. I'm not sure which one, but I think the coupe/hatch's bumper is a little shorter on the sides. I do know that you need to modify the bumper to get it to fit properly on a sedan. It may bolt up, but it won't fit like OEM.

yea you're thinkin 6th gen, the coupe and sedan share taillights in the 5th gen just ask Toyz-B-Us, he bought those red/clear tails off me that I had on my car at the meet.

Yup, 6G is different. 5G is the same between coupe and sedan... I've been through several sets that came off of coupes, and I haven't had any problems putting them on my sedan. The only difference is the profile of the trunk where the back side and top side meet.

some of you may or may not remember me asking about chassis straightening a while back but my car has been fixed for a while... before and after shots coming up.











my first accident in four years of having my car but what a damper it put on my project...in any case a mild bumper mod came out of it
