When installing the front flares, how did you determine the front to rear location? My AA front flares have a wheel well opening about 1" larger than stock (at the bottom of opening), did you just center it or do I need to bias to front or back??

Either way it seems the front belly pan, air dam, what ever will need to be shortened (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sawzall-smiley.gif) to match up. Have you guys experienced this or are my flares just F'd up?

I don't know if this will help...sometimes simply squeezing the flare onto the car will open up the wheel opening a little, conversly, pulling out on the flare when it is loosely clamped will shorten the wheel opening distance.
