LMAO, I had the exact same problem when I put my Fast toys lid and HSW plate kit on, but I think it was actually even a little worse (the two were almost touching). I just kind of looked at it and kind of said to my self... WTF!!! HSW recommended a smooth bellow so luckily I had ordered one. I didnt feel to good about hacking the **** out of my brand new $60 dollar piece of rubber, but, you got to do what you got to do. and it took a LOT of trimming, and a lot of forcing into place, but its there. I would try some lowes or home depot piping next time like stated eariler, its cheaper. good luck.

You can also slightly trim the lid to push the maf slightly more into it. I usually assemble the lid w/ maf and bellow and slide the assembly onto the throttle body together. If you get stuck let me know.

I ended up getting a 3 inch coupling from Home depot, boiling it in water for a few mins and it went right on, a bit of trimming and i was set.. car isnt quite together yet, and there is a lot of "stuff" not yet together but you get the idea...
