Oh really? That sucks. I saw that like 3 other brands sell the same wheels for the same price. Maybe u can cancel your order and go thru them.

I'm pretty sure it will , but I found mine on a four door but it looks like they maybe are the same , if your going to pull it from the junk yard all you have to do is remove the latches that keep it shut with the gate and mount them on one in the junk yard the same as yours and the only thing that needs to be done is the hinges landed up and welded on to yours

Take a sawzal with a few battery's with you to get the hinges off the body . And when your testing it out you will find the bottom sticks out (hammer+lip) makes it shut flush here's a pic right above the hinges is what you need to beat upward to get it to shut right . Take a pair of pliers Bend it up tord the front of the car first then smash it in as much as possible
