getting my HU to be flush with the dash?

I have a Kenwood HU with the metric kit for the SI. What I noticed when I installed my HU is that is tilted up and to the driver a little. I want to make the HU flush with the dash because I am looking to do a custom look were you can not see the seam lines with doing some bondo work. What I am wondering is how do I get the HU to be flush with the dash since the kit sucks for this I found out?

Well after about an hour of playing with it I got it to work. It is a pain because you have to bend only some tabs and not others and find some ones that you did not notice before. I kept working on it and it looks so much better now that it is flush.
