I have a 1993 E30 325i cabrio. I need a passenger door, fender, and hood.

I know the door is cabrio only, but is the hood and also the fender?

thanks in advance for the help. :)

after posting this, I have been searching for parts online.

Why is it so hard to find a cabrio fender? EVERYONE has a coupe fender, but NO ONE so far has a cabrio fender. :(

does this mean that the same part has two different part numbers. or that the two parts bolt on, but may have a different bulge or something on the hood?
