Who has rear tail lamp guards? Two installation questions/help requested.

Hello,

I am running into a concern that I am not lining up the lamp guard correctly to the sheet metal. The reason is that the bracket that I need to line up hits a "lip" on the sheet metal near where I need to drill the 10mm hole and it's gouging away at the paint.

As such, would one of you please take a pic of your installed rear tail lamp guard at this angle? (the pic is of the left rear tail lamp).

Because of the lip, it is causing me to leave a visible space between the lamp guard and the exterior sheet metal (that one could visually see post-install). So should this space be ok or should the plastic of the lamp guard be physically touching/pressing against the exterior sheet metal after install?

Thanks in advance!

Ok, I think I figured out the correct "fitment" of the tail lamp guards... I stumbled up on this picture/angle in the LR Accessory catalog. It looks like the plastic guards are supposed to be snug against the body.
