What i can see from the picture your not using locking tabs i would advise it to stop gaskets blowing easier and bolts on the manifold opening.Very cheap but worth the money in the long run

If your getting over fenders get the proper ones that go the whole way up to the rear quarter glass the other ones look wrong in my opinion.
Just wondering anyone on here flare their arches to the extreme that is needed to run this offset/width of alloy????
