It will probably look like crap imo. My suggestion is put a coupe/hatch front bumper on your sedan. The swap is fairly easy.

When I receive them I'll see what I can do...there's a first for everything....how different are the sedan and coupe fog light? And can the front plate be removed

Front plate is longer on coupe/hatch. Brackets are different too.

I'm gonna give it a shot, there's nothing to lose...most that might happen is fog lights end up ruined

That's weh u're wrong all major mods will be done to the fog lights and brackets in other words I'm modding the lights for d bumper not the other way round...custom brackets will me made....I will post the pics of my failure or success and one more thing I'm not a big fan of the OEM fog and already another set of fogs lined..so this is basically an experiment....I would also like some ideas from u guys as to how I can make this work

it physically wont fit. the 2 foglights and completely different. sell them and get sedan foglights. that would be the best bet with least headaches.
