What he said isn't spam although the the first half could've been left out. And name calling gets you no where fast. Let's keep it civilized.

Fiberglass is formed by soaking material like fiber cloth with resin and is hardened [usually] over night. There is absolutely nothing that the sun is going to do other than harden it more, if anything at all. You aren't going to bend it back and if anything you will crack it by trying to do what you are thinking.

What you are going through is what happens a lot when buying aftermarket parts. Stuff like this is punched out one after another without much focus on final fitment.

Sometimes you can heat the parts up with a heat gun and bend them into place. That really depends on thickness what was used ect ect.
