Default big coolant hose issue

i have the chrome bmr shroud and it sets the radiator way back with my setup and i barely have any room for the coolant hose. i bought a universal one but its still not wanting to seat the shroud right to put the bolts in. is there any other hose i could use or another way to go about this since my space is limited?

weld a pipe in the shape you need, and use that as a hose. connect the pipe at either end with pieces cut from the radiator hose and clamps
