In the link below, I posted about the hood not sitting how I'd like for it to. Not sure why, & I haven't really tried to address it yet. I don't recall it being an issue with my fiberglass cowl hood, so I'm not sure why it's sitting high with the stock one.

Between the weather & fighting fitment, it probably took me a week to get the taillights installed & looking decent. It was fun getting those rubber seals back into place on the lenses. Then I had to trim them a bit. The passenger's side light gave me a little trouble. I had to carefully trim the hook tabs on the rear housing so that they'd fit into the slots on the body properly. I did the same on the driver's side. However, it seemed as though every time I'd get the top into place, the bottom wouldn't line up right (& vice versa). On the driver's side I ended up having to remove the plastic trim piece on the corner above the light because it was interfering with the top of the taillights. Lots of cussing, trying different screws, pushing, pulling, & trimming, they eventually both became acceptable. I hope I don't have to take them apart anytime soon though!
No sooner than I got them installed, we got hit with some Winter ice/snow. We had very frigid temps for at least a week, so I didn't do anything during that time. Here's a few pics of the snow & the Hoe.

I don't have any good daytime pics yet of the tails installed, but you can get a rough idea in the pic below. I'll try to get some better pics this week.
