For the Curren front you need fenders, hood, bumper, and lights. Possibly part of the radiator support, but don't hold me to that. I've seen people selling "kits" on eBay where all it had were the panels and lights.

I have both a 95 GT Coupe, and a 94 GT hatch. I love them both. Partial to the coupe as it was my first. I think they both look hot, but the hatch is going to be my 3S-GTE car just because I'm going for that GT-4 look. My son getting the coupe, and we're going to mod it out some for him cosmetically, but keeping the 5S-FE in it because I know how I drove at 18, and I'd like to see him make it to 20, and beyond!
 Agreed, it would be nice to see some production numbers on those. I just consider it the more rare of the two, and I kinda like it. -------------------- |

Have you guys ever compared the rear bumpers of the coupe/vert vs the liftback?
I'm trying to buy a rear bumper reinforcement for my 95 gt coupe. I've found some for about $60 shipped on eBay, and the description says it's for a coupe/convertible, but the p/n is 52023-20280. From my research, 20280 is for the liftback and 20290 is for the coupe. Most of the aftermarket websites I've found list the 20280 as the correct fitment for the coupe, but Toyota parts diagrams list 20290 as correct for the coupe. Are they the same with different part numbers?! Or maybe is the difference so slight that they can be interchanged?! This is confusing! |

The coupe/vert rear bumper is longer than the liftback. I would assume the bumper reinforcements are longer accordingly but it's possible that the parts are very similar.

Any idea how much longer? Id the reinforcement is 1/2" or less shorter, I don't think it'll be an issue since it'll all be covered up anyways. Might make the rear bumper skin bolt holes not line up though...
