Angry ROVER 75 CDTi - FITTING THE UNDRETRAY

I now have had my "new" (built 16/3/2005) CDTi for 7 weeks (er, vibration coming up steering column still not sorted after several hundred of £s later!) and soon realised that no Engine Undertray was ever fiited. Ahhh - the dreaded "Project Drive" strikes again!
However, there are 2 small thin-gauge plastic type flaps/covers each side - was this some sort of compromise?
Anyway, I bought a "genuine" Rover 75 undertray to fit and the proper fitting kit thinkling this would be a 20 minute doddle......how wrong!
I am now about to make my 3rd attempt to locate it with the underside of the front spoiler and to make new mounting holes in the tray itself to align with those pre-drilled in to the sub frame and elsewhere. It needs 10 in all.
Why is it when parts sold as GENUINE are not always compatible??!! ED
