Sedan vs. Coupe part fitment...
What's up y'all!
Searchin' my butt off for something related to this for the past few months, but couldn't find anything significant to answer my questions:
1) Is it possible to fit an exhaust set up made for a coupe onto a sedan? (without significant modification)
2) Is it possible to fit a rear bumper made for a coupe onto a sedan? (For this one, I know there are people that have put the AMG kit for the sedan on the coupe, but wondering if it would work vice versa)?
Since the chassis is the same for the coupe and sedan (w203), I'm still trying to figure out which products (more specifically, aftermarket) can be used on both the coupe and sedan without problems and with exception to certain interior/exterior OEM parts (i.e. Rear spoilers, rear taillights, side markers, command, door pins, etc...).
Any help/input you guys can give on this would be great! Thanks in advance.

Thanks, Harris. I appreciate the input.
By the way, did you get my emails I sent to you? Sent them after the new year. Let me know if you did/didn't and I'll re-send them if you didn't receive them.

I figured that the piping on an exhaust set up would not work because of the fact that the sedan piping would be longer, but how about just a muffler?
With regards to the piping up to the muffler, do the sedans and coupes have the same exit point (where the piping meets the muffler)?
