Octane sides help!

Ok wasnt sure if it should go in this forum but, my octane sides isnt fitting correctly. the top part of the back by the door is sticking out and inch + from the body of the car. but the rest of the side skirt fits up perfectly. i dont wanna mold the kit to the car unless its no other option. what can i do its on both sides but i dont think it should stick out like that.

Have you put the screws in the top by the back door? My Octane skirts did not fit well until some alterations was made. As far as molding goes, if you can manage to scrape up the cash then do it. Mine is being molded in next month before it gets the new paint job It will look better and it doesn't seem to be that hard if you have ever done any body work before, I think Dynaglass is what we will be using. If you have any questions just hollar at me...also search for the old thread here about the Octane skirts...there is pix of a few of our cars there showing the skirts after installation.
