TJM Question

Hey guys I just put my TJM on and I think I was sent the wrong wings. They seem way too short.




So if someone could hook me up and run out and measure theirs it would be really helpful. I really am hoping they are supposed to look better than this.
Thanks!

Mine are 10" long from wheel well to the rubber gasket joint at the long points (top)
Bad thing is that I painted the whole T-15 wings and all before installing it. Oops!

I got it from Steve Sonoran. I Followed the directions to a T. Everything else fits perfect no gaps anywhere. I think TJM just changes the brackets and wings for differant vehicles so it is more a universal design. I think I may have just gottent he wrong wings. Gonna call Steve but want to make sure that it is the case. I know he will make it right he has great customer service. Anybody do any measureing? HELP

no problem...the top of the wing measure 12 3/4 from the rubber gasket thingy-ma-bober to the end of it.
the bottom of the wing measures 10 1/4 from the rubber gasket thingy-ma-bober to the end of it.

Thank You Thank You Thank You.
Mine are 10" at the top. 2 3/4" differance would make them fit. That means I have the wrong wings. Nothing can be simple. I am convinced. I wonder if them having been painted is a big deal? We'll see.
