Definitely, and looking at the ebay listing TBGs body is just as short.

Here's the front of my runner Optima. Cutouts to clear the shocks were cut to original body lines, as you can see they don't actually clear the shocks any more and the rear edges should be level with the back of the shock mount. The raised section should line up with the body mount at the rear edge of the section. As you can see by the body mount hole I cut it slightly forwards from where it should have been, then the hole had to be extended further forwards to fit on the body mount.
