If you buy one the one from PSshop, what you need to do is just cut it yourself. The way i did it was a measure the difference(i cant remember what it was), then i taped off that amount on the bottom, took a razor knife then scored thru the chrome so to help it not chip. Then i took a cut off wheel and cut slowly the whole way. Then i test fitted it and just cut what i needed until i got it right but before i made any cuts, i went ahead and taped and scored the chrome. It came out real well for me, the chrome did come up in one spot, its about is big as this <1> <---that one represents the size of the spot that came up. I used zip ties to attach it to the bottom of the header panel.
It took me about 5 hours to do from dead start to dead finish. It took me almost an hour before i actually cut it.
