PSU fan grill problems

I have the OCZ ZT 750w PSU. However, my case (Corsair Graphite 230t) has a little bracket thingy right above where the PSU goes so that the fan grill hits it and cannot slide fully in the case. How do I fix this? Can I flip the fan grill around? Also, I don't have any PSU screws, what else can I use to hold it in?

Edit: Even if I insert the PSU with the fan facing down, it still doesn't fit as the fan grill is not flush with the PSU body.

Buy a PSU that fits.

Remove the "little bracket thingy"

From the sounds of things you're trying to insert the PSU with the fan facing up, is that right? The case is designed for the PSU to be inserted with the fan facing down, as there is a filtered intake directly below.

I see what you mean now the grill sticks up slightly from the unit.

Do you think I would be safe to flip the grill, or just remove it all together?

Never worked with that PSU so I'm not sure.

Okay, thanks. Also, do you know a way I could hold the PSU in there as I don't have any PSU screws.

What happened to the screws?

My brother used velcro when lost his screws to one of his builds.

Get some more screws from a hardware shop.

Try inverting the grill. Make sure it doesn't hit the fan.
