Quick question for those running l5's

Is it normal for the passenger side quarter panel to be almost a inch wider than the drivers side? how did you remedy this if its a common issue? I don't want to spend too many hours prepping these if its a defect.

So the flare is actually 1 inch wider?? Call the company, might just have to send it back.

Tell 'em to send one to match the pass. side & you can run wider tires, I guess.

Since the factory panels match, it is my understanding that the aftermarket panels should match as well.

No that is not normal. Call them because they do make custom flares to any width you choose and it looks like you got one that was made to be more narrow than the standard 2".
