Just call Kody and start a dialogue with him about fit and finish. Tell him what ur expectations are and if the lids don't meet them, send em back.
For my bud that just ordered them Kody called a local shop and coordinated any install hand holding and fabrication that might be required for him.
Kody has a brilliant fabrication mind but he just doesn't do the bolt on stuff that's mass shipped to Revzilla. Set those expectations and enjoy the process. Either do the fine tune fabrication / sanding yourself of have a local shop do it. It will be well worth the patience.
Call Kody. Great guy to work with especially if u include him in the process from the start. Hell, he might even be able to get u some Gen 1 lids.
Good luck brother!!!

Kody sent me a video of him installing them and basically told me I was a dumb *** and not installing correctly. When I got them back I followed his instructions to the T on install. Guess what, fit the same and still leak. I would buy a Honda before I would give that puke another dime of my money.
