I do. The rear fits perfectly with the mark VII axle. The front is a bit too wide with the SN95 spindles. The drivers side is right even with the fender, and the passenger side sticks out half an inch.
The body on my car is complete junk, so not a great example of fitment.
I replaced the passenger fender with a junkyard unit from an earlier car, I believe thats the issue there. It had what appeared to be fire ax damage when I bought it.

I can snap some fitment pics tomorrow, but again, my car isn't a great example.
