Installed a set of factory wheel well trim I bought from site member MPD.

I did not drill side holes to mount them, nor was two sided tape used. Instead, I used some 1 inch fasteners like the picture below for the inner wheel well holes. They are snug, and will not come off unless you cut the plastic heads off. These fasteners are flush. NAPA or any good hardware store carry them (not Lowes or Home Depot).

Finally got my lift kit installed and some custom hid's I've been working on. I went with the 4" lift instead of 6" and the wheels fit the wheel well the way I wanted. I'm happy with the results so far.

Turned my idle up by 60 rpms and guess what the annoying shake disappeared haha. I called PHP first to see if this was action since every place I've been to says there is nothing wrong

These were 22 millimeter. I used a 20 millimeter drill bit. I used a small hammer to gently tap them into place snuggly.
