Im using the M52 fuel rail with M50 inlet and the top cover now sits too high.
Is it a case of chopping the plastic supports and rebonding them on lower?
How have you done it?

i just cut the support bits at the bottom off drilled through the cover and fixed it with a bolt, paint the bolts black and it looks ok.
