Im not 100% but i think the fronts will work.
For the rears, EG lca's are wider than EK lcas, soyou would have to use EK LCA's in the rear in order for it to work.

If im wrong someone will correct me...

EG bushings are wider, so yes you have to grind them down. The front two need no modification. This faq should help:

yes the front will fit but the rear mounting to the LCAs are diff. eg to ek you have to use spacers to make them work but the ek to eg might be to tight... and i dont have any pics sorry... this is what my brother told me..... i hope this helps out...
