A tip for you. If you are only mounting the over-riders, it's not too bad a job, and being close with the angle will work. The angle of the plate should match the angle of the edges of the nose opening, top to bottom.

If you are going to mount the chrome nose hoop, be prepared for a real hassle. There are a bunch of angles that have to line up to get them to mount properly. It takes a lot of ADULT words and beverages to get it done

Here in the U.K. the rubber finishers are very expensive from Cobra suppliers unless you modify something yourself. I notice yours are rectangular. Great colour combo btw. Like the “ghost” stripes.
