These will have come out of the same plastic injection moulds that have made all the other J11 QQ mudguards, same goes for the plastic bumper parts they fit to, so I'd very much doubt that one set of mudguards will suddenly not fit, certainly not by that amount anyway! You may well certainly be a millimeter or so out in error because of manufacturing tolerances but certainly nothing like the amount shown in your picture. I reckon if you wiggle/move them around on the car a little you'll find they'll fit just fine :-)

looking at the pictures it looks like your mudflaps need lifting up so they are on line with top of the plastic door protection

I agree, which is why I find it so weird that they won't fit. I'll try again and let you all know. Cheers

I offered them up again and they fit perfectly if you apply a bit of force to get them to match up. Panic over! Thanks all
