Sedan bumpers on Sportback

Postby Tywhiteguy » Sun Dec 22, 2019 8:27 am

Hi all. I previously made a post about Sportback RA bumpers and where to find them but that didn’t turn up much. The more I’ve been looking the more likely it seems to me that sedan bumpers will fit. I know the shape is obviously a little different. Basically I’m trying to ask if the sedan bumpers will fit (evo, RA, aftermarket, etc.) the Sportback model. Making small mods isn’t an issue for me just wondering if it’ll line up.
Thanks in advance

Fairly certain that they won't fit,just look at where the taillight are for a start

I agree with Lancerdarryl
From the rear door back on the sportback is different to the sedans

Definitely wouldn't fit unfortunately. After owning both, there's no possible way it would be a direct fit :( You could always try a wrecker and find one that way :)

Man that sucks! I’ve had zero luck even finding an oem bumper for a decent price
