No prob. A word of advice. Make sure the doors are lined up when you bolt the hinges back down. And if I have mine apart again, I would replace the bolts for the hinges because the braces don't come with replacements and the stock bolts are almost too short. I think I stripped one of them on the way in.

I ordered pair of these fender braces, and they shipped them without the tabs on two of the nuts, so you can't install the braces.
I've sent about 10 emails to them over three months...in a week it will be 4 months later, and still waiting. They continually forget to reply to emails, then make excuses when you send them additional inquiries asking why.
Apparently they have to "special order" the nuts, and it takes several weeks (months) to get them. That seems a bit ridiculous.
Beginning to think they're just shitting me at this point, and hoping I'll stop asking about it.
So here I am waiting 4 months later. I sent them another email after giving them another month, as they told me they should be in mid August, and still no response....here we go again. It seems now I'll have to call them again, and incur more long distance charges.
It's looking a lot like I'll never order anything again from them in the future.
Your mileage may vary...but holy **** I've never had so much hassle over something that should have taken 3 - 4 weeks to sort out.

I agree, it does seem exceedingly easy. It should be a super easy process to get the proper two nuts sent out.
I don't have any welding equip, and should I have to go drive somewhere to pay someone to get that done? I'm thinking no, but maybe it's my fault for paying for something, and expecting to have it done right, and shipped out as advertised?
Their customer service is pure shitsville.

^ I would get creative...
I do have a welder, but when I didnt I knew 2 people that did, but I wouldnt have a problem going into an independent muffler-type shop and asking them to fab up said nuts...it'd be $20 and a case of beer.
If I had to I would JB-Weld a small piece of scrap metal onto a nut...After you set/torque them in you'll never touch them again!
