    Does anyone know if my deflector is defective? The two pictures below show the drivers (right pic) and passenger side (left pic). The drivers side seems to fit fine but not the passengers. It seems like its out to far and high. They definitely don't look the same. The passengers side appears to be pushing against the headlight too.

    I got it from truckaddons so I'll call them tomorrow and see what can be done but wanted to check with you guys first.

    Thanks.

    This is the passenger pic. It won't let me upload another pic on my ipad.

    Mine doesn't look like that. Are the holes in the deflector spaced out the same? Need to take some pics with hood lifted.

    The hole doesn't seem to lineup perfectly but there's no way to adjust it to be good. I tried forcing it over but it just goes right back and won't stay when the screw is tightened.
