Damn, got here to late to offer advice.
Just put a bit of electrical tape on the guard where it will hit the forks, lift it as high as you can get it, then push the sides in toward the wheel, pull out forwards while tilting it down to follow the curvature of the tyre. It is a tight fit, but with the tape on the sides you dont have to worry about scratches.
The scratches you got should buff out with a decent polish Heidi.
