It's different, I'll give you that. I also would have gone with the 09' Hatch front end, that would look sweet.

its actually the rear end that was swapped. the 07+ are about 3 inches wider from the rear so lots of cutting/welding was done!

Is that why the rear wheels look like they're so set into the quarter panels? Needs spacers, or a different offset.

the rear beam should be interchangeable.. even the doors, rear window, etc should be the same, the only place it should be wider is the back trunk line/taillight area, because the old style swooped back in..
