They fit flush. You can't buy them that way, it takes hours and hours to fit them and make the brackets. I doubt there is even one fender on these cars [as true for many of the ferrari's] that are the same. For instance, the right cover on my car is about .5 inches wider than the left. Therefore, finding a set made to fit, a specific car, is virtually impossible.
I bought a set of covers that had a shape to them, but they were about and inch to an inch and a half wider than needed [I almost think I would have been better off doing them from scratch]. I've done a lot of things, as far as fabing goes, but this ranked right up there as, tough! On a scale from one to ten, one being the easiest, its a ten.

terry,

where did you get the headlight covers? as they are installed now, do the covers overlap the body work or are they flush. the pics make it appear as though they overlap.
