Dremelling out lumps of frame will weaken it more than bashing it a bit.
You only need a couple or three mm widening.
The Muz snorkel was different; a truly appalling fit! When I say fit, it might as well have been a Honda Fit.

SORTED!! The first thing I did was unclip the black hose and put it under the cross member - this bought me about another half an inch of 'flushness' - the bonnet felt like it was there or there abouts so a minor adjustment to the latch and it closes and looks perfectly flush!!!!!
Thanks once again for all your help guys!

Halfway through dremeling and the battery has packed in.........looks ok though. A bit of spray paint, and rubber surround and I reckon it will almost look like stock!

Told you so!
Glad it didn't end up in the hammer approach!
