You cant, it will break in two pieces. Mine is like that to, but not as bad as yours. Its the shape of the quarter thats not right. The taillight panel is just the same. Need to wack it with a hammer.

I had a similar issue with one side of mine after AMD quarters. I took a ballpeen and gently persuaded it to go where it belonged.

not every quarter is exactly the same i have found



Nor are the end caps, I went thru a boat load of "original" end caps to find a set that would fit my 70 NOS rear qtrs satisfactory, guess what, you'll get close, but no cigar, so either mod the qtr or mod the end cap, as much as I hated to do it, I had to use metal to metal filler to contour the edge of one end cap to my liking...all part of putting a car back together better than the factory did, don't be fooled thinking the factory assembly was A+, it was far from it

I work in a truck plant, I can vouch for that, it is much better, but not perfect.
