You have to remove the parts that are sticking out. And sand it all smooth, then you already have it looking lots better. But it is way to far from the body them, so also shorten the plate that fits under the chassis. And drill the three fittingholes on the new places.

The solution for that is what you can see on the picture above, make a little plate from aluminum so it will be pushed straight. Don't forget to paint the plate black, otherwise you will see it and really dislike it. When you paint it black you won't see it anymore.
When it is all done it looks like this:
