Edit: Decided to take the pieces to my painter to see if anything could be done about the finish. He told me that clear-coat would not solve the issues with these covers and radiator shroud. I did not even tried to fit them just sending them back. I am requesting that JDM cover the shipment back to vendor.

The fact is that this is a great idea to dress up the engine bay but the execution of the idea is dismal. Clearly JDM does not have a quality control process in place. So buyer beware.
