I cannot confirm, but why wouldn't they? Am I missing/forgetting something so obvious that I'm not taking into account? haha....

The shape of the rears are different. Fronts will fit fine.

from my research, they are not compatable. I dunno why A few manufacturers market their fenders as either 2 door or 4 door. Theres gotta be a logical reason for it.

Fronts work. Rears are not the same, can't even modify them to work.
