I would recommend if you buy a set, buy directly from AMD, as some vendors/Ebay sales may have some of the "old" stock which was supposedly recalled which did have fitment issues

The first set I got fit good, just that one of the wire retainers was missing on the pass side. Jegs took it back no problem and sent me another set that was fine. Check for fit before painting them.

I sent them back and will repaired my original ones. Bob Last edited by VCODE; 01/06/19 06:21 PM.
