S5 fenders on a S4

Will S5 fenders bolt up on an S4?

Yes. I have an S4 fender on my S5. The only major difference is the molding.

Jerry,

Were you able to install the S5 press in connectors for the S5 molding onto the S4 fender? Or, did you have to resort to just using double stick tape?

I used Permatex Black silicone adhesive sealant. Just had to cut off the clips on the back of the S5 molding. The portion of the fender in front of the wheel well has the holes, so the front piece with the marker light goes in fine, but behind the wheel well there is no holes.

The other minor issue was that the S4 fender has no "provision" for the S5 air skirt. The S5 fender has a gets a little wider for the skirt to bolt up to. It fits snug so I'm not worried about it.
