You know, I just did the same thing.
Looks like I made the same mistake as you too. I cut the left and right pieces the same length and my left side stuck out further. Doh!
Nothing the grinder couldn't fix. I also put a piece of flat stock in the corner for a flag mount.

I designed this a few years ago, 2"x1/4" cromoly with skateboard wheels, same size as a standard grab bar.
