Henry, what gap did you end up with on the stone shield / Hood fit? Really nice job fitting those fenders. No bulging on the middle. Did you end up shimming the lower 2 bolts to stretch out the panel a bit?

The whole front clip was very time consuming to say the least ,lol. Shims at the bottom of the fenders weren't to bad, the gap at the front is one of my little pet peeves along with a few other little things , oh well . It is what it is , I really like the 342"s its still good on the road and gets out of its own way much better.
