    Xpel PPF and ceramic tint; DD SS3 Pro fogs; Hitch pod reverse light; Meso Customs dual color dome light; Gas hole; Lomax tonneau cover.
    After barely successfully completing a fog light install by partially removing a small section the fender liner in the wheel well, I noticed a pretty large gap on the very bottom FP side. I can’t recall if it was like this before I began the install (doubt it) but I’ve tried removing the screws and clip to adjust/push and carefully check snags with the liner a dozen or so times (and dropping f-bombs after each failed attempt). No matter what, the liner is just too short resulting in a big gap where excessive amounts of dirt/mud/rocks/etc. would probably accumulate. Anyone have any idea how to get the liner to where it needs to be?

    My truck has a little gap but not like yours .Just put the hose nozzle in there to blast away anything whenever u wash the truck so the crap doesn't get a chance to accumulate. Don't worry about it too much.
