CO S4 to s5 fender swap?

I do realize the mouldings are different between the s4 & s5 from the face lift but, do s5 fenders bolt right up to and s4? if so, do the body lines from the doors match the fender lines without mouldings?

I would think he is asking if they are the same other than the trim... I'm also interested if s4 and s5 fenders will innerchange and just be able to swap the trim...

From what I've read... is that an s5 fender will bolt to an s4. the molding on s5 is different and uses plastic clips to mount the moldings in" holes or slots" was just looking for confirmation that and s5 fender will bolt right up to an s4 regardless of moldings. the second part of the question was the space where the molding mounts. (the recessed part of the door,etc) I assume these recessed areas are equal in dimension for all fc's...? if the guy is still parting it out Ill pay for the fenders from an s5 vert & repost on how it went.
