hard to describe but i basically found that at the stays, if it was sitting too low then it put pressure on the guard.
I didn't have to do bending at the brake caliper tab, there was a point where I thought it wasn't sitting flush, but re-seating the rack stays helped it sit better ... I added washers to make it all sit nicely (but didn't have to add that many).
