Gialla Grill Install on 2005 ... WTF?!?

Hey, what's up with the bottom not sitting flush? How do I fix this extremely unattractive gap!??! Any and all input is appreciated!

edit: used the word extremely too many times.

You gotta take a dremel to it and shave it down to get it to fit flush or shave the holes that your factory bumper fits into on the bumper. I shaved my grille down.
