Need some help from the guys with OEM fender flares. I order a set on ebay for the 2500 RAMs. I got them installed on Friday kept the truck in the garage to let everything set up real good and took a look at them today and noticed the front flares front top edge by the headlight was popping loose. How did you guys fix this? I assume it can be fixed there are a lot of guys with sport bumpers and fender flares on here. One more thing I did pull all the old foam tape off and put new tape on. Also used a 3M adhesive promoter on the plastics, and 25% rubbing alcohol to water to clean the paint. So it should have stuck good. In the picture you can kind of see the new foam tape stuck sum to the paint and some to the flare.

Oh also it seems like the flares front top edge has a bit of a curve to it. Does yours? Is this normal? It fit nice on Friday but you could tell it had tention on it, and I was worried that this might happen.:emotions122:

I had the truck in a heated garage for the weekend and a week prior to the install.

Well, I gave up and had a friend that is a body guy look at it we shaved a little off and is sitting much better now. I'm not completely done, once I am I will post pictures.
