Aftermarket grille fitting

I purchased an aftermarket radiator grille assembly to replace my current OE one, and I found out that it doesn't quite fit.

The four screws along the top are fine, but the two on the corner aren't flush with the edge - the result is that while the top of the grille sits snugly on the hood like the OE one does, there's a large gap at the two edges. It looks like it can be fixed by just removing the clips and bending the metal so it is flush.

I was going to return it and order an OE one, but I was wondering if it wasn't going to be the same way - do they have to be bent to fit or not?
