I've had these glass flares around that I bought from a local. I mocked them up to my car and lets just say, the fit sucks ass. Is this how bad they typically fit, or are mine worse than average?

I just wanted to do the rivet thing, because I like the look. But, I wonder if these are just too torqued to bother with.

First pic is how they naturally lay up to the rear fender...

Second pic is with my wife putting some weight on it...
