Grill Shell Help

We tried putting an aftermarket grill shell on my sons 72 today.MAN what a POS!
It seems to straight to fit.Sorry I dont have pics but when we measured the re pop to the stock, the repop is about a 1/2" wider! When you stand over the top of them the repop looks to have less of an arc to it.has anyone ever encountered this with an aftermarket grill? I'm kinda leary of just trying to tweek it for fear of having it uneven.
