S13 2Dr vs. S13 HB Body Kits Q? !!!!!
 

Hey. I've been searching online for ages now it seems, but haven't been able to find out the answer to my question, so I figured maybe talking to some actual experience would help. So here is my question:

Just what is the difference between an S13 HB body kit and an S13 2Dr body kit? How close are they to an exact fit, and in not very close, how hard would it be to fiberglass a HB body kit to fin on a 2Dr?

From what I've found in my research, there is no significant difference worth mentioning, i guess. However, whenever I look into buying ANY body kit, it is always HB or 2Dr specific, and I just don't want to buy a body kit that will be a pain in the neck to install.

All help is greatly appreciated!

i think they are the same but i could be wrong. maybe it says hatchback or coupe only because maybe refering to the jdm coupe that has the silvia front end and the jdm hatchback with the 180 front those have different front bumpers.

yeah i've seen those too, but usually it says S14/S15 front conversion, so i dont think thats the reason, i keep seeing it come up while looking at full body kits, but thx for the post, i appreciate it

I know coupe and hb sideskirts are the same...i would imagine the front bumper would be the same...the rear bumper might be different

I was thinking the exact same thing earlier. I was comparing my coupe to my hatch and they looked the same. Tomorrow I will go out and compare measurements.

Like Nunook said, the rear bumper is the only difference, every other aero piece is interchangeable.

Sweet, thanks guys, that helps alot- less headache, trust me. I've noticed that its hard to come by a coupe body kit that I like, they're a little rarer, but theres so many that seem to only be for the HB, though I still prefer the coupe bodystyle by far over the HB, personally, though dont get me wrong, a hatchabck is sick too, im not dissin ur car. Thx alot...again

moved to correct section

i don't think there is much of a difference

Hey bigman, try reading the enitre thread before you post a response. It's already been established that the rear bumper is different. Just read to prevent unnecessary posting and personal embarrassment :thumb:
