Do sedan front fenders fit on wagons? They look like they should.
I bought a fwd wagon that's in much nicer shape than my sedan other than its bashed in passenger fender.

Do you mean hatchbacks? My '84 4wd wagon has fenders from an '83 hatchback and they were identical.

Good Morning Als85Tercel,

Based on your avatar pic, it appears you have a 4-door hatchback. I haven't seen many of those, most hatchbacks are 2 door. I believe the fenders will likely swap fine, though the corner lights and headlight surrounds may be a little different. I know there are differences between the 2WD and 4WD corner lights on the wagons.
Psalm 37:4 "Delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart"

In remembrance of my friend ARCHINSTL:

Yes! all of the fenders are the same. some trim and external details, like the marker lights, are different. but fenders, and the hoods too, are interchangeable. some have the radio antenna on different sides, so you may have to plug an antenna mount hole.
