Yeah, I had to make a much smaller mod on that side.

If you look at the pick in the link, where is a small (about 4") extension on the wheel well to direct the strongest air, I assume. Behind and below that I added some small mods, including covering areas above the muffler. Basically I started from the bottom of the bumper and sloped upward and forward to one point or another, all along the back.

The gas tank covers the entire middle portion perfectly, so I didn't have to do anything with that.
