I'm gonna guess for front lip choices....or you messed your 9th bumper up (hope not)

Short answer - You can do anything with enough cash and a good body shop.

I would start by taking good measurements and comparing the two -mounting points on fender, headlight location as well as the upper grill. (dont forget what is located under the bumper for good fitment)

I remember people said there was no way to put a FD2/FD2R front on a coupe, but guess what - some one did and it didn't even take too much modding.

Hi I might come off as a bit nuts but I am obsessed with the shape of the 8th Gen Honda Civic sedan but obviously I would luv the features of a newer model. So based on my reach I think I can put the rear end of a 2011 sedan EX-L and then put it on a 2015 sedan ex-l. What do u think? Other than am crazy ?
