The front fender that faces forward on your model is only the width of the hull because it came from an VVSS hull.
The front fenders should go all the way out to the side skirts on an EZ8.
I cut front fenders off a Tamiya hull and gave them to my friend to attach to the front of his taigen hull after cutting his off, at the same time he installed the side skirts.
Here are two pics of my friends tank. A taigen upper on a Tamiya chassis. Look closely at the front fender width how it blends into the side skirt.
