Bending Tow Eye

After finally getting a tow eye cover (can you believe it, I was given it by my mechanic who used to own an R :D ) I find that it doesn't fit :evil: :cry: .

The tow eye is too high, only by about 10mm or so, I guess its been bent at some point.

What to do? Was thinking of just sticking a long bar in the tow eye and forcing it back down a bit :D .

Will I wreck anything, how/whats it connected to at chassis (would check but its dark :roll: ).

Oh, and now that I have a tow eye cover to mock up, I'm soon to be ending the zero supply (and rediculous £££) of tow eye covers with a version of my own....

Just apply a bit of weight on it to bring it down a bit, you won't do any real damage to it.

I had to remove mine with a bit of force and the bolts where goosed.
