Type 4 door is wider. I don't think you can very successfully shorten the trim - the ends are hard to get shaped and anyway the polished anodising gets damaged.

The only piece that is interchangeable is the rear Type 3 wing and 2-door Sedan I think. It is the same length but has a bit of a wrap round end, which I suspect would not be too hard to straighten, but you can get reproduction Type 3 trim, but not Type 4.
