Or get a flange spacer and push it forward a tad on its rubbers.

Leave it and pretend you've got a mid 90's touring car - a la the Alfa 155 2.5 V6 DTM's twin upswepts, burning its ally guard plate! Cool.

Yeah you can get 'em. They prob vary in quality, depending where you shop.

I reckon someone like Demon Tweeks will do pukka ones i.e. ones that professional race teams wouldn't be ashamed to fit themselves....

Really, that surprised me.

Don't know where you'd get decent ally plate one ... Perhaps approach a machining shop and get a custom jobbie done...?
