I think unless you got it from a sedan to begin with, it won't fit with any fender. You'll need custom work.

I'm not going to say for sure because I don't own a 6th gen, but after inspecting the body lines and profiles closely, I think it's safe to assume that quite a bit of work is going to be required to fit the lights.

Not really worth the trouble IMO.

I remember seeing some pictures when I first joined here of someone trying to place a sedan front on a coupe and the fenders matched some but were still very far off.

yeah not worth it. before I'd invest in getting those lights and all the work needed i would look into trying to find a wagon face and/or sprinter bumper

Or better yet, save the money from the conversion, sell the sedan and buy a mint condition GT-S coupe and drive it as it is. That's what I would do.

Nothing from a 2 door will bolt onto a 4door in any country with one exception. The ae92 sprinter front end should bolt onto the ae92 prizm as they have different bodylines, I have never seen this done but both cars look like they share the same lines.

The 2door Levin lights will not fit the sedan. You'll need to change/ modify the fenders on the sedan and the lights themselves. The levin lights have a grille of it's own, but will not bolt up to the sedan right... You're better off keeping the USDM stock or getting the wagon face.

The levin lights are still in my room, I bought them for, now, no reason...

AE92

I tried to. To say, the levin lights would look nice on the sedan but the grille would look more squished. But the lights would've required cutting and drilling, same with the grilles unless I bought the levin grille which would be less work.

I'm happy now with my wagon-face, just as exclusive.

I have tried this as well and it was me who put the sedan front on a coupe and nothing lines up properly. Even if you got the levin lights onto the sedan and somehow made them look proper the levin grille would not work because the lights would be closer together on the sedan than the levin so you would have to shorten the levin grille still. Way too much work for the end result.

Do a search the thread should be around somewhere I took pics to.
