or just deal with the gaps

if you search you can find multiple threads on it

- Sat Jul 20, 2013 8:11 pm #334476 actually pretty easy to do but youll need to swap some parts and modify others

parts youll need
2/3dr hood because 4dr are longer and will over hang
2/3dr bumper
2/3dr bumper support they are shorter for the 2/3dr bumper easier fitment than trying to wrap a 2/3dr bumper around the wider 4dr support

and ull need to modify the bolt holes from fender to bumper

- Sat Jul 20, 2013 8:14 pm #334477 my problem is sourcing these parts. im from South Africa where we never had the 2/3dr models.

also with above mentioned parts is it all basically "plug n play"

U should!! ud make a lot of ppl happy this side of the world. I had to import everything for my eg hatch since i cant find parts locally, like if i damage a corner light, or fender. it has to be imported, sux so bad :x

Id love some spares, spoon mirrors and stuff lol :thumb:

Pricing on the hatch bumper is R1800. i had my bumper plastic welded, so a sedan bumper with the hatch center plastic welded in (if that makes sense) since i couldnt find 2/3dr fenders etc
