Air Frame install ???

For those that put these on, does it matter which direction the rivets are put in on the tunnel drop down brackets? The instructions, I believe, say go from the bottom up, but I'd like to go from the top down for a cleaner look.

Rich,

The rivets can go either way on the brackets. I installed them so there was a little grip sticking up with the rivets. If you used an air hammer with the end/head that shapes rivet ends down smooth, then you would have a really clean look. I installed IQ tunnel stiffeners also, but the Airframes really stiffened up the tunnel.

for me, the rivets were not long enough to come up from the bottom. so i came from the top. worked great, no issues.
