Same thing happened when I installed my RR light guards. Found out that I had accidentaly turned one of the lights unknowingly and installed it so the lens was tilted to the side. I had to take the guard out, unscrew the light, and reposition the lens, but yeah, you will probably still have to check the adjustment with the torx screwdriver. No biggie.

the lenses are "keyed". there is a plastic notch they fit in at the top. my guards went on fine, but hit this snag when i went to the ipf lenses. make sure the notches are lined up and the lense is flat in the housing, then carefully screw it back together while holding the lense in place
