Default will edge fender flares fit on a '08 sport?

i have a '08 sport and personally i like the edge fender flares much better then the ones i have. does anyone know by any chance if the flares on the edge would fit into the holes that are already in the sport fenders? thanks.

I believe they will

Your flares are taller than the edge flares but I think they still match up bolt hole wise

hmm. well im going to the junk yard tomorrow so ill probably see if i could find some there for cheap. i just dont want to order them new and not have them fit. my guess would be that sense the flares are taller on a sport like you said that the holes would be higher and farther apart then they would be on an edge.

if no one knows for sure, which i dont really know why anyone would, if someone could maybe get me some measurements of their edge i could compare them to mine.

just where the holes are in the fender. i know you can feel them sticking out from the back. especially in the rear wheel well. just like how far the edge holes are from each other and how far from the edge they are just to get a basic understanding.

good old paint

you mind if i ask why? i sort of think that the sport ones are a little bulky and like the edge ones because they are smaller and dont have the rivets making them look simpler.

well i went to the junk yard to hopefully find one so i could test it out but there were none there. i plan on going again soon so hopefully ill find one then. i dont think it will though. from talking with stl i dont think the holes will match up like they do in the edge.
