you will have to mod them to fit flush with the bumpers, not sure how tho, i found with mine if you put the side bumper screws in to hold the bumper out a bit they look flush but then youve got a gap between the bumper and the body, i just left mine and it looks pretty good anyway

theres nopt much of a gap to be fair mate, they sit pretty flush, you only really notice it if your really picky and you can simply smooth them in with some f/g.

Here's something that I have been thinking about; should I spray arches and skirts before I put them on the car or after? I thought the sensible option would be before, but then if I do wanna seal up some gaps with f/g then I will need to paint them, and will it not come out patchy? I'm not too educated in the painting side of things. |

ok when mine was put on by a professional, he told me easiest way to do them is: 1.Trial Fit 2.make any cutting requirements 3.check if you have some where to secure them, in my case inside the arch there was room for screws, and use drill to make nessecary holes in the skirts and wheel archs, same on what you have bought. 4.Paint the skirts, laquer etc 5.Once fully dry and hardened, apply mastics or tiger seal and bond to the orginal archs 6. screw the insides to ensure a tight fit. Stand back and jaw drop Althought this may have worked on mine, this is due to mine not been the original ford items and been brand new replica's, you obviously depending on which you have bought may be in an easier situation. hope this helps and remember my was done by a pro.
