Street Scenes Grill, Main grill GAP at the top. To cut or not to cut?

That is the picture showing how the left side of the street scenes grille is shorter in height.
Now I took this picture as I was dry fitting the grille before I decided to go ahead and cut out the OEM grille. Now I dont know if it is the Street Scenes grille that is messed up or is that gap only visible because I have not in a sense pushed it all the way in and set it in there after cutting the grille.
This is what is holding me back right now.

I just installed the Valence, and let me tell you OFF is not even the correct word to describe how much those slots dont even match up with our strips in the valence. I got so ****ed that I just jammed it in there made it even on both side.
I mean I pay $100 for the lower grille and this is the Quality Assurance that comes out of it? $hitttttttttttttt

Is it a gap? or can you bend it up to touch the top part of the grill. I really need to know how this turns out cuz I want to either buy , or know I am not gonna buy.

I had the same problem with my valence. I used all 8 black clips that Street Scenes provided with the valence, and then I zip tied the top part of the valence to the those four valence pillars. The zip ties are not visible @ all, and the valence is in there nice and tight. I was ****ed off that the valence's slots were extremely out of place, but the valence does look better than any cheap Home Depot mesh valence.

If so, I'm thinking you need a deflector or at least a clear bra. At this rate your hood will match my car within a couple years.
Don't cut it Dixit! Just send it back. Have patience. I know a layover grill will come eventually, at least I hope so.

I ordered it for a 2002 SE, and ended up sending it back. The grille was off in size, alot like what your picture shows. But get this, the valance wasn't anywhere close. I have 1 large opening with a bar in the middle of the car, whereas the valance is for the older 2000-2001 style (maybe even the 2002 GXE/GLE <- not sure) and is only a single, smaller hole. The valance was nowhere close to fitting, and the grille was about 1/2" to 1" short from top to bottom.
