I received the TRD Rear Splits about a week ago and I tried installing them. I noticed that it's a bit too long? Like it doesn't sit flush? It makes me wander if the hatchback models had a longer rear end? I have a liftback model. Does anyone have any idea why it's like that? The parts are genuine btw.

Liftbacks are 174", where coupes are 177". The difference in length is all behind the rear wheels. If those were coupe splitters, they would be much more than half an inch too long.

Like line the string along the seam? Then measure it with a measuring tape? So I can get the correct/exact measurements for your coupe trd rears and compare it to mines.
