it will require modification. not bad, but not great.
if you HAVE ZR2 flares, go with em. other wise look into "PACER Flares" they are cheap and look pretty slick.

ZR2's have a lip in the fender well that the flares attatch to. I'm guessing you would have to weld a lip or at least some tabs in order to use them. Plus, they are mucho $$$. Better off using some aftermarket flares, though you may have to get a bit inventive on the rears.

Could get a set for 4dr from New Zealand but it would cost an arm and a leg.

Are you driving a 2dr or 4dr? It's not mentioned in the OP...

the problem with ZR2 flares is that the fenders are different. ZR2s have wider openings in the front and the back.
