1986 Trunk on a 1989 car?

[dinanm3atl]

Are they swappable? Simple question :)

Both cars are coupes.

[nando]

yes

doesn't matter if it's a 2 door or 4 door either. and FYI, all E30s are sedans ;)

[dinanm3atl]

Oh cool!

Hoods too?

[Mike325]

Hoods too.

Awesome. Now I need to get this Alpine Trunk with MTech2 spoiler premounted on it... then find someone selling a nice Black Hood.

A coup is a two door. A sedan is a four door
I bought a later model hood for my 84'
It was differant by an eighth of an inch with a tape measure.
I shimmed the fenders a little, bent this and that. Differant hood stops.Created an even reveal. It looks good to the eye, but I know it still isn't right.
Next time I will find a match for sure.

You mean for fitment?

Because you have

Coupe'
Saloon
Touring
Compact
Cabrio

etc for body styles. I have never heard of a 2 door sedan... hehe

2 door E30s are indeed sedans.. it has nothing to do with them being 2 door or not, but the way the body is built. ;)

Is one of the hoods after market (not OEM)?

Pulled it myself in a bone yard.Great yard. They have like twenty e30s and new ones coming in.It is a pick your part in Wilmington next do the docks.They crush them , then load them directly on a ship going to Japan. On Alameda I think.
In the recycler when they say coup it is a two door.When they say sedan it is a four door.My insurer lists the two doors as coups,
