Has anyone had issues with the duckbill not fitting flush on the corner edges of the deck lid during prefitment ? It's not attached fully yet but the points of attachment are further inward thus I would expect that they cannot pull the corners down as I would hope for. It sure looks like they will end up not becoming flush with the deck lid.

That was how mine looked when it just sat it on the lid. The corners at the top will go flush when you tighten it down.

I sure hope youre right, because my body shop guy who is very particular wasn't so sure about it, but we shall see.

Thanks for the input!

No problem. Hope everything goes well with the install and post some pics up when you get it mounted.

I really like it but like I said at first fitting it sure doesn't look like it will go flush, but as soon as it is mounted y'all will get the first pictures!
