Question shaved the front turn signal bosses on FFR....Did I oops?

I installed the liights and Turn signals tonight and think I might have oopsed!

Background info: I am trying to replicate a 66 SC as best I can

1st, I drilled the 2 holes in the body for the mounting screws on the back of the Turn signals where I did so that I could control (shim) the down and out angle the TS has in refrence to the headlight. Only problem is that I did not see that I cannot adjust the lense cover (rotate it) to make the 4 fins in the lense itself go in a North/South - East/West direction until AFTER I put the lenses in. I am pretty much stuck with the diagional look unless I pull and redrill, which I could do.

SO MY 1st QUESTION IS:
What was the origional orientation for the early 65/66 cars? The origional I have to reference here locally is a '67 street and it has the later/different lenses.

2nd, The turn signals I received with my kit are a pretty cheap press on covers ( I also have a set of clear lenses) and as you can see it leaves a real UGLY unfinshed gap.

MY 2nd QUESTION IS:
What can I do about this? Should I just order different aftermarker lights?

What are your thoughts guys?

Thanks
