Might be time for me to join SRS, I've been putting it off and spending too much time as a guest.
What did you have to 'tweak' Dave?

Spacer widths, trimmed the knobbly bit, a few road tests over bumps...well worth all the effort!

Hellmotherf*cken yeah! That looks very smart and sitting just right. Problem is, you've indirectly rekindled my need to perform the black optics on all of my chrome work, just when I'd started to like it. I hate you Dave.
Do you have any pics of the infamous knobbly bit removal?
Sorry to hijack; I'm not running any spacers but my wheels are sitting a little wider than yours, so speedhumps are occasionally causing the front near-side to touch the lining retainer (hex bolt). It doesn't happen on the off-side because there is no hex bolt holding the liner (missing!). The quick fix would be to remove the near-side hex bolt but I don't like this idea, a loose arch liner can't be great. I think I may have to take Darth on a bodyshop adventure to get it done correctly. Unless you can offer some advice Dave?

Had the same issue, i removed the top hex, it's fine without 1 as long as the rest are there!

The nobbly bit was just grinded down a bit, pics on SRS, sign up baby!

I had my silver trim colour coded at a bodyshop along with all the front and rear grilles and fog surrounds. Really pleased with it, much easier to keep clean painted rather than plastic!

lol ok ok, I'll sign up! I'll pop out that top hex but if I get any more rubbin' I'm off to a bodyshop to get the arches rolled, this could be a slippery slope. Next I'll be wanting some poke and stretch for the hellaflush wrong fitment crew look!

The hex will probably do it, gives you a good couple of mm.
