very good job indeed, but you've made the common mistake and it's a detail that bugs the hell outta me, the archs aren't right

Looking good Bobs, you've always been one mod ahead of me in the D3 to D4 exterior conversion. Front & back done on mine. Picked up D4 wheels last weekend so there going on Saturday. Last job is tail gate & wheel arch spraying.
very good job indeed, but you've made the common mistake and it's a detail that bugs the hell outta me, the archs aren't right
Been looking at the pics for past few min & I don't understand what the mistake is??

They have a dark plastic (similar to exisiting all black arches ) at the base to keep the lines of the car straight(er) then the D3 painted arches .... front arch on pic is a good example ....
I was thinking of using some sill tape ..... but not a huge issue for me at the moment D4 Front upgrade/cut back wings n things 'taking a long time but getting there'.
