Default C3 Rear Clip Flex

I installed an ACI rear clip on my 75 coupe. The clip is for a 68-73. It is on the car and fits pretty well but when you push on the center of the deck (where the luggage rack would be) it is very flexible. Has anyone run into this? Am I missing something?

Has it been bonded to the rear tub?

The clip is bonded to the rear tub. It almost seems like there is suppose to be an add on support in there but I haven't seen anything like that.

Does it have the drain tray under the vents by the rear window?

No it doesn't, that could be my problem. Know a good place to get one? I think it would still be pretty flimsy towards the rear though, I'm not sure if there should be something back there as well.
