Does either of them stop the headlight from projecting outward, or shorten the headlight distance. Just curious.

I got my scoowl and installed it today. The well nut system to hold the top two screws is completely bogus. I used some washers and nylok nuts to hold it together, it's good and secure now. I will give the fit about a 7 out of 10, but it does look cool!

Anybody that's going to get one I would advise not to drill the holes out to 3/8 for the well nuts, just make it big enough for the screws and then use some nylok nuts, way more secure!
