Angry POS side cowls!

The fit of these side cowls are horrible, if I clamp them to the hinge support like the original there is a 3/8 gap to the firewall, the dang things are not wide enough.
And the outer panel is the same width as the side cowl ...grrrrrrrrrrrr so I can't just slice and weld in the diff .... any ideas? Other than return and hope someone else has better quality, would like to find an OEM but that may prove to be difficult.
Has anyone replaced side cowls with better luck than I am having, please chime in.


Gap with the cowl clamped to the hinge support.

Ditto ... those circles are where the OEM was welded.

Clamped to the firewall and short on the inside
