it's a 2017 RR sport.

the part number on the box/instructions match other part numbers when searching on the interwebs.

 

not sure what happened but he def got the wrong part. inner brackets match bolt holes. fits width-wise but it about 3-4" short on the front and about 1" short at the back !!

 

anyway, will send it back and try to find the right one. haha!

I am guessing that your problem is that you were removing the original trim piece completely.

 

You only take the original trim piece off temporarily to drill new holes through it.

 

Then the original trim gets reattached to the RRS and the new rail sits on top of the old trim piece.

 

The screws go through the holes that you drilled in the original trim.
