Default Light tint heads up.

Ok ordered a kit of all the smoked light tint from Stang Mods (exept the front markers that they did not have in stock). The head and fog lights labeled as 2010 (was told they should work...and I figured they would also) both fit fine. The front markers I got from AM and they fit and look good but are a thinner material. Anyway to the HEADS UP part. The tail light, third brake light and rear markers were all quite a bit small. I have emails SM tonight with some pics and a description so maybe they can tell me whats up. hopefully just a bad cut but from the looks of it the rear lights are all bigger than the 2010??????? Anyone got info on this? I will try to keep this updated so everyone knows what is going on.

I will also get some pics up besides this stock view from the day I picked it up (last Thursday). I have front light tints, STbar, shorty ant. and Wheel/tires installed so far.

SM returned my email and is shipping out a new set. They are short on tail lights till next week but I will update about the 3rd brake and the rear markers until then.

I'm not sure about the tail lights but i know the side marker and the third brake light tint stretches and will cover the entire light. I had the same problem with those two being a little too small.

OMG you actually thought that Ford made the lights slightly bigger this year, because some half assed tint company parts didn't fit right?

Really?

Cause I'm laughing pretty hard here.

Really?

i used those on my car and they were fine. the headlights were a bit large and overhung. After the film dried and cured the end parts laid down on the lights under teh hood. My qtr tints and 3rd light tints were ever so slightly smaller than the lights. overhang on those woudl look liek ***.

Wow your not only an *** over on s197forum are ya?

With the different rearend and not even clost the the same looking tails i could see how they maybe got a lil bit bigger.

Stang Mods isnt a half *** company either. I have used them and there are many others that have too and they are great.

I heard about having to stretch the marker lights some. The tails on the other hand were a bad cut.
