Im part way through installing an invader kit and now ive got to installing the front indicators they seem far to wide to fit. Has anyone done this before that can help? or can anyone post some head on pics of their kit help ill post a pic later to show what im up against. Im just really trying to avoid cutting the kit if i can help it. Its already been a bit of a nightmare installing it with it being all twisted an stuff. Im definatley paying for not paying! Guess i should have spent more money kindasad.gif

Yes,I was able to use the hood/bumper trim and also I was able to use the highbeam trim without any gaps. The top where the hood sits you have to figure out before putting on the rubber strip though. It's not always going to be even with the stock rubber piece. You're using the factory metal pieces for the sides right?

The metal side pieces your talking about im guessing, are the pieces that attach the stock bumpers to the front and rear fenders? If so the yes except 1 because a couple of the bolts snapped when takin the stock off so just put some bolts through on that side and didnt have much problem doing that.

Heres some pics on how mines lineing up with the lights when i leave the gap for the stock rubber trim.





The rubber trim on the high beams does hide this gap but only just.

Im just not feeling 100% happy with that but may have to be.

I got the heat gun from work now so gonna have a shot with that in the morning.
