Default Bezel issue

The Bezel that surrounds my radio on the passenger side towards the top by the radio has never fit properly. You can push it to where it belongs. Its 3-4mm out. Is there a spacer I can put the fix it or bend it carefully, just wanted your guys opinion.

Put some black tape around top right tab and cut off the insert pins will set flush

When I get it off ill have to make sure Im cutting the right thing. Im sure when its off ill see it. What will the tape do and the insert pins which are lower I assume are too long so they are holding it up?

tape will give the top tab some thickness and make it tighter fitting on dash

pics are more than likely to this to insert in the holes in mounting cage to allow it to be pushed in far enough. Just something from the mold when it was made
