Sorry, that cracked me up :)
I have no answer for you tho.
Allan, it's the pick-up shoes. You need to tweak the bends on both sides of the contact patch. the first bend has to be a perfect right angle, making the contact patch perpendicular to the 'hook' that goes in front. Also, sometimes the shoes may sit crooked, if you look at the car's front bumper, you'll see the shoes sticking out underneath, they may be crooked, kind of like this: /\
You need to push them in opposite directions to make them look like this: _ _
Hope that helps.
