99 f4 shock compatibility with 01 f4i

I have the opertunity to get my hands on an Ohlins rear shock from a 99 f4. would this be compatible with my 2001 f4i. I'm thinking it would. the part numbers are different, that could just be color. oh and the wheels?

Thanks

I'm quite certain the chassis and suspension are the same thing. Therefore, the shock should mount right up.
The wheels have a different design to them, but they're most likely a direct swap.

The shock will be a direct swap. The F4 and F4i wheels are different though. The F4i wheels are hollow spoke which saves a lot of weight and makes for quicker turning.
