1957 Trunk Emblem bezel not flush

[Dan P.]

The trunk plastic emblem has 3 lugs that hold it tight to the bezel and body of the car . But they stick up a little and holds the bezel off of the body creating a gap . I can file them down but before I do has any one else ran into this .

Dan if memory serves, the pieces fasten and rotate to conform to the body tight. Some one who has done one recently will get it right.

The plastic part has a flat spot at the top and the bezel has a flat shoulder that lines up to the plastic piece.
