Well. Close. One is about a half inch higher on one side than the other. Details, details, details...it is what makes a build great or a fail.

What is sad is every detail that is lost to rookie mistakes is easily preventable with a little planning and experience. Just a couple pieces of masking tape following the side vents "lines" could have made them PERFECT. Kinda like using the correct crimpers and proper size spade terminals (at worst) or solder/heat shrinking (best). Just a BAD ASS concept of a vehicle, again, completely over the heads of those responsible for building it.

Cough<<<<Jeep Experts>>>>cough cough. Haha.

I thought it might have been because that's where the indentions were like on the factory fenders (it's off if you like at your stock stuff) but after researching there are no indentions on the smittybilt fenders so yep just poor execution again.

Driver side looks crooked as well. They still didn't fit the diamond plate to the box and the crimps are terrible.

I though SEMA had a standard....hell if this is what the latest quality designs in the automotive industry are, I'm in the wrong business. I remember when SEMA vehicles meant something. What a sad joke.

Bed lined floor. Shouldn't be an issue. Maybe. Unless the diamond plate rusts.
