I cut the canopy along the line I taped up yesterday. As I mentioned, this completely removed the flare along the front edge.
I was a little worried that a full cut along the front edge would make the fit worse, but surprisingly it actually got better. The fit along the sides is still great and the fit in the middle got noticeably better.
Even more surprisingly, that lowered the front enough that the back edge nearly perfectly follows the marked line. It’s within 1/32″ along the whole line.
