Default Quater Panel differences?

Does anybody no if there are any difference in the 67' vs. a 68' Quater PANEL. After fitting my two new quaters this past weekend, the LH side fits surprisinly well, however the RH side fits fairly badly.

The visual difference in these two are the LH has side scoop vent holes and the RH has none. On the boxes these were shipped in, the LH is labeled as a 67' while the RH is labled as a 68'.

So, is this just the nature of the beast, or are these two pieces slighly different enough that I should send it back?

as always, Thanks Alot

send it back, if you ordered a 67 and they sent you a 68, just my 2 cents

I was thinking the same, so I gave em' a call and the new one is on the way. And at least they identified it as a mistake on there end and are fixing it.

they are very different. the 67 has the 2 side vents while the 68 does not. tho the actual fit of the panels are the exact same. i actually found a set of 68 panels for incredibly cheap, so i got those and just cut out the vent holes myself and welded the old bracket on there. saved about $150 doing this and it looks great.
