Got my NOS back of hood trim last night. It is beautiful! Had some residue from it's 40 year old bag it was in...a tad of polish and boom. Mint! Pulled off the old "crimped one". Cleaned up the paint under the old trim and the wife helped me pop the new one on. Man looks a million times better! One question on it. It doesn't sit 100% flush where the old did on the driver side. Just over 1/16" off..and shows some paint imperfections. It wants to keep springing out just a tad. I DO NOT want to risk bending it. What would be a good fix here fellas?
New one.
Old compared to new.
Small gap due to "springing"of new piece.
With pressure pulling it down.
