take plastic arch off and u will see on the metal the holes for where the arch bolts on to.well cut the lip underneath it away so that u can still bolt your arch on think it gives u an extra 20 mm

just make sure if u grind it not to leave any sharp edges and dont leave any bare metal showing.go over it with underseal or paint to protect it from rusting
