IIRC you can just trim the outer edge off leaving them flat

They fit bit the fitment around the lip is very tight. Many people simply bend the shield back to whatever point they feel comfortable with due to the fact that replacing them is such a PITA, requiring you to remove the rear emergency drum brakes in order to access the part, you also need to replace the springs according to BMW. I've bent the shield back on my friend's 228i when retrofitting the m sport brakes onto his car and he hasn't had any complaints
