I think they are pretty much interchangable, and just about the same. I think the s5 fender might be like a 1/8 inch wider.

you have to paint the molding though, or it would look dumb.

The two peices of S4 mouldings clip in (front peice) and tape on (rear peice) with no modification.

The S5 fenders have clip holes for the moulding peice behind the wheel, but the S4's just tape on.
