I have found that most of the aftermarket TR4 badges are not curved 
enough to fit tightly to the bonnet correctly. The radius of the back of 
the badge and the curve of the bonnet are slightly different.

Fortunately they are quite easy to adjust the radius of the badge by 
hand.  This also changes the spacing of the mounting posts at the far 
(open) ends.  This could be why yours is not fitting properly.

Try measuring the distance between the pins at their point of connection 
to the back of the badge and at the open ends to see if the dimensions 
are the same.
