Default HD Round Nostalgia Air Cleaner Cover

Anyone else have trouble with the round HD nostalgic bar & shield logoair cleaner cover (#29138-91) clearing the base of their SE air cleaner? I tried one on my '08 Deluxe and the coverrubs the base of my SE air cleaner (notthe filter element). I used the suggested gasket kit (#29591-99) and it still touches - even before I fully tighten the center screw making it seem like it dosen't fit properly. A thicker gasket would be the solution. Any other similar experiences out there ??? Thanks.

I have the same cover on my 2003 FatBoy (with SE setup), and it fits perfectly....

I don't know, but when using the 'gasket' there is plenty of clearance on my bike.

Plenty of clearance here, I think you may have the wrong model for your bike, maybe packaged wrong.
