Default Poison Spyder Rear Bumper fitment

Has anybody run into a problem trying to attach the rear bumper and hitting the stock trailer hitch/tow bar piece? Mine seems to just hit the left side where the wiring port is. It's just enough to make the bumper not slide on. Should I grind down that part of the hitch, or am I just doing something wrong?

I tooky hitch off, put the bumper on, then slide the hitch in. it works you just have to put the hitch back on at an angle, one side at a time.

I have a PS rear bumper also. I ground down the wiring harness clip just a little. Did fine bro! Check out my pics in my profile.
