front fender interchange?

I'm going to buy a new pass front fender for my 1990 240sx coupe. Will a pass front fender from a 1992 240sx fastback fit perfectly? I'm assuming that it would since they're both s13's, just wanted to make sure...........
someone please respond...
thanks,
tristan

Don't the DOHC S13's have 2 extra holes in them that the plastic bumper trim clips into?

thanks for your responses.
i just called the nissan dealer and they said that the fenders were changed in july 1990?!?
i then asked the guy if fenders from a 91 or 92 would fit on my 90. he told me that i would basically have to try to put it on to find out.
i've found two fenders for sale, one from a 92 and one from a 91. i just want to be 100% sure they will fit.......
has anyone or does anyone know someone who's successfully swapped the fenders?
as for the two extra holes, are they noticable?
can i fill them in or something?
i'm planning to repaint......
thanks

It will definately fit, but I'm pretty sure you'll have two holes near the bottom in front of the wheel. Cause on DOHC with the newer bumper there are plastic pieces on the fenders to match up with the bumper. Shouldn't have a problem filling them though.
