Nooby here
i've got a 1999 uk spec sedan/saloon, which is scheduled to go in the bodyshop in a fortnight, b4 i go on holiday.
i wanted to know if i can put front OR back Coupe bumpers onto the sedan.
Everyone i've spoken to gives a different answers.

i'd really like to know wich parts are the same.

I know on a 2000 ...Back bumper will fit , front wont.... using the coupe bumpers

No, coupes are wider than sedans and therefore coupe bumpers will not fit.

so not even the back bumper? I really want a coupe mtech 2 on my sedan.

you can make it fit for the right amount of money.
