I finally put mine on this past Fri. What a PITA! I got light scraches/red marks all over both of my forearms. It's just so tight between the fender liners and the fenders.
I just want to mention that only one of the four strakes was in excellent condition (not perfect, but excellent). The other three got a series of small dimples on the outer edge (not perfectly smooth & straight), some rusting on the underside and in the threaded mounting holes. One of them actually has a dimple/dent about 2mm long. Also, I had to put some lithium grease on four of 'em to prevent rusting.
I was gonna ask to send 'em back and get better ones, but I just kept forgetting and putting it off. I was kinda lazy, too. Eventually, I just decided that it wasn't that big of a deal and put 'em on. I'm sure any picky customer would want to send them back. But then, I don't always view the strakes from 10-12 inches away, so it's all good.
I think there could be some tighter QC. Overall, it's still a good product. I do like the shiny chrome finish!

Bassy, if at anytime you're unhappy with that imperfection, let me know and I'll change it out for you.
You guys must have some phat phalanges, lol. I was able to change both sides in less than 10mins each.
Thanks again for all the support and comments fellas!
GROUP BUY IS STILL ON GOING!!!

Pic of the strakes on my car:
My car's kinda dirty in the pic. The strakes are shinier than they look in this pic as well...Need to wash my car and polish those strakes.
