They will bolt on, but they won't fit correct. You can make them fit correct, but you'll also need tog et the coupe/hatch corner lights and bumper. Then you'll need to remove the front reinforcement bar fro the bumper to fit (you do this anyway with most bodykits). If you do all this, everything should all bolt on and line up propery with no gaps. If you just try to bolt on coupe/hatch fenders without this though, it won't line up right, you'll have gaps, etc. Basically, no, it won't fit properly on its own, you need the other parts listed above to make it fit correct.

I agree with you, under most conditons it's not worth it, though if you're getting a body kit and new fenders, then you really only need corner lamps. It's pretty easy to botl up the parts and line it up, but I suppose that's all about how good an eye you have and experince. I could get all the parts and bolt em up in my garge at home, but I guess that's not to say everyone could. I mean, if you can do the install work yourself and are already getting most of the parts, then it won't cpost much more. If your getting all the parts anyway and can do it, then why not, as 2 door parts are easier to find. However, if you want someone else to do it, don't have experience, patenice, etc...or arn't planning to buy the whole darm front end (bumper, corner lamps or one peice headlights, fenders) then it's just a waste of money and time (in most cases). Just look for the 4 door parts, they're out there, metal or finberglass fenders, urethane or fiberglass kits, you just gotta look around a little more.
If you are all about doing things yourself and don't mind trying until you get it, and don't mind messing up a few times, not having the car to drive while you do it, etc...then go for it...it's up to you.
