Hi everyone, this is my first post!

Following the advice on here I've added a partial grill block to my 1.9 non turbo diesel 206. Last winter I found this undertray at the side of the road, with many of the factory fixings broken.

I'm trying to fit it to the bottom of my 206:

It's going well but I have a problem. At each side of the front of the bumper there is a flat piece of plastic that goes on to make up the arch liner. This is parallel with the ground. The tray I'm trying to fit slopes down towards the ground from front of the bumper towards the start of the wheel arch. This means I have a gap of about 50mm between the bottom of the arch liner and the tray. I've tried to draw a picture below showing this

Will this cause a problem? With winter coming I'm worried snow will get trapped in here a rip off the tray.
