Default Hyundai panels.

Does anyone know if the 97 hyundai elantra sedan and wagon front panels will interchange.

I want to swap front doors, guards bonnet and bumper from the wagon to sedan, has anyone got experience in this?

99 had the face lift - color coding - bonnet - lights front bumper/grille so i guessing it's just cosmetics and the sub frame should be the same

Thanks for the quick replies. You guys are great.

Yea I have a 1999 wagon which is the facelift which is my baby turboed custom suspension and too many mods to list. But yea I am talking about swapping panels from a 97 wagon to a 97 sedan which i also have.

Sedans are rare at wreckers here but wagons are plentiful. My sedan went under a truck so I need to change almost every front panel.

You have to upload it to a storage area like Photobucket then use the image tab to post the photo
