What am I doing wrong here? The plastic clip to attach my SKS Bleumels at the brake bridge is too chunky to fit under the brake bridge itself and if I have it facing the other way, whenever I pull the brake it squeezes the clip which squeezes the mudguard.

I generally bin the clips and drill two holes in the mudguard, and thread a cable tie through and round the brake bolt.
This is better especially if you are a bit tight for clearance as you can get the mudguard as high as possible.

Thanks for the cable tie bodge, I have bleumels on my bike and had the same problem as @ltc , cut the kit bracket down, but was never entirely happy with the result as it was more flexible, 2 3mm holes drilled, 1 cable tie round the brake caliper bolt, result, rock solid mudguard fitment.
