Default warrior products fitment help??

I recently purchased a set of Rear Corner guards as well as cowl guards, they do not sit flush and look like they need to be bent alittle more, I am hesitent to drill into my body as my thinking is the sheet metal will bend and not the armor, or that the pop rivets will pull threw the sheet metal? any suggestions??

I had this issue with my cowl armor as well. I called warrior and they said If they are diamond plate that there machine doesn't get it perfect. You have to mess around with them to get more flush with the contour. Mine never were completely perfect but damn close

I used a rubber mallet for beating. I also would take the corners and push them against a piece of wood to make them go in or out. Hard to explain. You can also call warrior they were great to deal with and ask them their advice. It's a great product however I feel it's their Job to make them fit better not ours.
