Default 09/10 Redouts

first off after seeing positive reviews from Aerotect I went ahead and bought red outs for my 09/10 style tails. I was very disapointed of the cut on these. I was expecting a computerized cut and what I what I got looks like they were hand cut. The thin strips that are hardest to apply were cut unevenly. The larger piece that covers that amber was in better shape but still off. They just dont match up well with the tails. I actually just called to complain about this. So does anyone know of a company that does a computerized cut of this style red out that will fit better?

Also for those who installed im sure you know how hard the thin side piece is to line up. Has anyone just left it off?
