no clue, but i'm guessin one costs more than the other because the hatchback was just copies by ViS, while the coupe had to be fabricated >>

also
all 6gc are 2 door
the difference is
coupe/vert and hatchback

the difference is that the taillight curve is a tiny bit different from what i hear
and also
its too short (not wide enough) for the coupe

I used a hatchback aftermarket on my coupe. I know for a fact that the sides are too short. If i remember correctly I also believe the hatchback back end was wider. I slit my rear in pieces and warped them in to fit and then reglassed it.

Hatch's are reffered to as a 3-door.

pics for everyone.
coupe/vert



hatck/liftback



the coupe/vert bumper is longer. Look at the placement of the antenna and the fuel door in relation to the taillights.

so anything for the vert will fit the coupe right? like aftermarket bumpers or whatever?

Hey Batman.. Thanks for the pictures.. Yea I can see the line on the white hatch, it shows clearly. But I cant see the one on the coupe. So is that the only difference? How about the lines and curvature of the bumper near the face of the taillights and license plate?

Boosted, when i bought the aftermarket rear bumper it was wider by about 2 inches. So the hatchback is wider then the coupe. Now the hatchback sides were about 1 1"2 shorter the the coupe. I had to extend. To take up the extra width I cut the bumper into many slices, but not all the way thru to the bottom. I then warped the bumper inward to take up the extra space and line up with the taillights. Alot of work bro, but its a one-off.

well the line doesn't really matter since the invader wraps around the rear quarter panel as well.

also, i somewhat got rid of that bumper/quarter panel difference
that pic was before i knew how to detail a car.

Thanks madmods & Consynx for the input. I have few rears here and they are not labeled for the 2dr/vert or the hatch.

I guess the only way to make sure is if anyone in southern california is interested in testing this out that would help. In need of a coupe/vert and hatch.

Thanks
