@tnt - it's close man. Can't wait to see it!
As you can see - no gaps, all filled with 3m tape. Any gaps and water will get in and eventually erode the adhesion of the tape.

In the third pic down you can see plastic washers acting as spacers used because the paint shop didnt get the instructions I gave the dealer to properly support the parts while painting and baking. Slight warpage was the result. When the warped part was installed , it pulled in when screwed into the wheel well buckling the side skirt it away from the body of the car and pulling away the tape. Plastic washers solved this.
