2003 Bra fitment questions?

My friend gave me his bra from his 2002 leased maxima for my 2003. I've contacted the dealer. They claim that there is one bra made to fit both years, in particular 2000-2003. I've followed the install directions, but it still doesn’t seem to fit right, mainly around the Air dam/air intake and front license plate. Will the 2000-2002 bra also fit on a 03? Does anyone have any advice?
Any input will be greatly appreciated.

I would check with Colgan Custom to see if the bra fits both years.

EDIT* Found this on Colgan's website.

According to their listing, the bra fits both the 2k2 and 2k3 Max.

I wish my friend could help, but he is deployed overseas right now.
Maybe if I warm it up quite a bit a get it to stretch a little. It hasn't been on a vehicle in a couple of months, and even then it wasn't on his car for more than a couple of weeks.

When I get a new bra, I let it sit in the sun for a couple of hours so it becomes more flexible. Once that is done, it is much easier to form to the car and if it's a high quality bra like Colgan Custom, it will fit perfectly.

I've did a little searching around and it seems that 02 and 03 are the same, but 00-01's are different. Also the bra's that claim to fit 00-02, don't fit an 03. Did this by checking some of part #'s and answered my own question. Since the bra I have is an 00-02 fitment, it looks like I'm going to have to get a different one.
