    I just pushed but I’m fat AF! I can see where the bracket slide up a tiny bit under the screws though, cause dirt to clean!

    I had to straighten my croocked rear bumper. I don’t even want to go there.

    Mine is acceptable. There's a gap but it's smaller than the Schwartz's gap.

    Dang, that’s very surprising.

    When I had oem fenders, every headlight fit like a glove.

    Maybe the 3rd gen shape / design is a bit more finicky and hard to get into place.

    I think it is the 3rd gen obviously The headlights are very different from 1st/2nd gen. Now if only the Toyota reliability of this truck could match the fit and finish!

    The whole front end of the 'taco is held together with foil, bubble gum, and wishes. Seriously it is flimsy, the plastic and the fenders. Take it apart once and you will be amazed the thing doesn't drop pieces hitting potholes.

    I have one good headlight gap and one that is pretty bad.

    Just saying the fit and finishes isn’t the greatest on these trucks. It’s not a Lexus
