Yes. I like it snug, but functional...no rubbing, no camber issues.

Two bump front, one bump rear.

Instead of tinting the lights, have you ever thought about painting the tails to a darker shade of red? That's what I've been thinking about. I remember seeing a post a while back where some one painted the tails a "cranberry or cherry" color.

Over the years, I've posted pretty much all the pics I've got. Do a search on my username and you'll find dozens of pics.
