Can I swap the 'chrome' moldings on the hood and trunk for the 'color-matched' ones on a coupe??
(not sure if the trunk molding would match up)

Thanks again for the help...

If you don't know, just say you don't know, or don't even post at all.

The answer is yes! Pop your hood open and look at how the moulding is attached. There are four bolt-like thingies and one plastic clip in the middle which you can't see...

listen man, i have a sedan, i replied to a thread last week stating how i sanded them down myself and brought them to the body shop w. the altezza grill and only paid 30$ for painting cause i preped them first. This is what i recommended last week, so that's why I said to search!!

Hey 'brownstreak'.........



I want to swap out the 'chrome' with the 'color-matched' one's...Read the damn thread!! [IMG]i/expressions/moon.gif[/IMG] If I wanted to know how to prep and how much it would cost, I would have asked.




If anyone else has some knowledge that would ACTUALLY be helpful to me, please respond

DOES THE REAR MOLDING ON A COUPE FIT THE SEDAN??

Again, the answer is yes. Just open your trunk and you'll see how it's attached.

I know how it's attached, but the parts guy @ Honda doesn't know if it would fit right...Have you done this 'Grey'??

IT WILL FIT, You asked he answered. I would trust Grey over any and every member on this site combined... If grey says it and he is unsure he will say so.

Well, now that you mention it...

Here's the sedan:


Here's the coupe:


The DX's (coupe and sedan) have different part numbers, but they still have the same color, right? Black?
Anyway, they look exactly the same. Looks like they attach the same way as well...

anyone???

I asked the same question...I guess nobody has done this yet

listen f'n FALKEN, i'm trying to save you some dough, if you DIY and have it painted, you'll save mad money, and it'll look just as good if you use a decent paint shop. The front alone w/ shipping would probably be as much if not more, i think it's like 30$ shipped than it'd cost to paint both pieces.......

 
Rep Power: 449

I can get both of them for $30.00...

I just didn't want to try and sell them afterwards if they don't fit since he won't refund on this kind of buy...





Thanks for the savings coupon

hmmmmmmm...Mbow disagrees with you on that

Someone on here a while back said that the front molding does fit but the rears don't

 
Rep Power: 0

I believe that's been confirmed. Coupe trunk trim don't fit sedan.

Huh, did Mbow reply to this thread? [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

Anyway, notice that in my last reply I didn't say that they fit. I said that the DX coupe and the DX sedan had different part numbers. That would mean that they're different. The picture suggests otherwise, but those pictures from Majestic Honda's website sometimes don't match up exactly with what's really there. I'm not sure if it fits... I'de have to take a look at the rear of a sedan and coupe side by side. Or... Better yet, try to swap them out myself. I might do this anyway just to see for myself. Stay tuned I guess, but no promises.

Yes, why don't you do that and then whatever you say won't be speculation.

Fudge! Didn't I already tell you that they don't fit? I checked into this almost a year ago now. Unless they now sell them painted for the sedan or the rear of the coupe/sedan has changed, they don't fit. I took my piece of off and carried it up to the rear of a coupe and one was bigger than the other or something...I can't remember...heck, bish me out for not replying and then not take my advice.

Oh, okay... Guess they don't fit. That kinda sucks, no easy swaps. Then again, what the hell am I doing in this thread? I don't have a sedan! [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]
