Will do bud, gonna fit the roof rack this weekend too!

Yeh the offside one is right up against the sill and has bent in the edge very slightly (just at the edge of the panel) but it won't be noticeable once the steps are off - it's only now that the front mudflaps are off that the bend in the step is noticeable to the casual eye.

I ran a Surf with just one fitted for a long time.

I like mine on the car because they do act as big mudflaps and keep the car cleaner.
