Central Pannel help

First thread :)
I have a 2009 Rene 800 and noticed the day I first rode it, that the central pannel didn't want to line up properly. I had it off today to change the air filter and when putting it back on, I tried to line it up properly.... But I can't seem to get It, it's almost 2 inches out on the front clips and I can't figure out why, ive spent all evening trying to get all the clips in but I just cant get it lined up right!
Is my frame bent? Do the panels warp?
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Tire Chains

Are tire chains effective in deep snow? I just purchased a set of tire chains for my 16’ 650 Outty Max. Is it better to install the chains on the front or rear tires for snow? Thanks in advance for your timely response in this matter.
