Default Need help with hawk hps brake pad install, front caliper holes not lining up

I need some guidance on the install of hawk hps break pads. I'm having some issues with the the front caliper holes not lining up. The new pad's prong wasn't wide enough to hold itself into the caliper, so I bent the prongs out slighltly. Everything seems to sit just right when I put the caliper and new pads back on the rotor. The only problem is that the holes are not lining up and I can't bolt the caliper back on. I've tried adjusting the prongs but have had no luck.

Any suggestions would be greatly appeciated.

Thanks,

Jason
