I've heard that Seagull and Phoenix are almost identical. You could try the Seagull canopy. If it doesn't work you are not out a lot of money.

Got the seagull canopy in the mail yesterday. It's at least 1/4 inch wider. At the moment I don't see anyway to make it work. Will think about it more. I think I have a plan to straighten out the orginal one as well.
I wish I had seen this thread sooner. I ordered the Seagull canopy for mine as well and found the same issue. I cut mine down the middle, overlapped it, and glued it together with canopy glue. The results were less than satisfying so I am back to my other plan. I will build a front canopy out of wood and cover it.
