The TwinZ nose panel arrived, good quality. It is drilled for use with the huge metal bracket that secures the forward edge of the OEM nose panel to the crossmember with two screws. When I transferred the bracket to the TwinZ panel (I had to slightly oversize the panel holes to line it up with the bracket; minus .5 point) I couldn't install the panel without distorting it to the point of nearly closing the slot. The bracket seems too high/curved to fit the panel. I temp installed the panel without it and it fits ok but the forward edge is loose. Anyone experience this? I tried to flatten the bracket by applying my 200 pounds of bulk to it and it didn't budge. You are supposed to retain the bracket, right?
