I need to adjust it a touch forward. Apparently my bed isn’t exactly aligned with the cab. One I have more time to study it I’ll post more info.

Hopefully everyone keeps posting pics of their shells. They look good!

Didn’t take long for evidence of misalignment to show up. I haven’t looked closer but the cap may need to be moved forward.
When first positioned on the bed, the rear was aligned and looked good however the cap was up against the back of the cab. The cap was pulled back to provide reasonable clearance but now the clearance with tailgate closed may need to be adjusted.

looks like the cap can be trimmed to provide clearance with tailgate.

How does it line up in these locations?
The first fitting of mine they made the back line up nicely but the front of the cap was against the back of the cab.

Its perfect. If I had to say anything, the the bottom rear is off a smidge but not much. The left bottom of the door had to be trimmed ever so slightly.

Looks great but wish the rear was the same angle as a JL hardtop and that the roof had the ribs on it like the JL hardtop too.

That’s the look Jeep/MOPAR needs to develop. They have all of the parts and can offer a look of stretched four door.

It's perfect, it matches the slope of the windshield. It has me second guessing ordering the RLD
I'm not going to lie, this is damn good looking buy it's nowhere near as durable or functional as the RLD. I seriously can't wait until mine shows up.
