I would try to fit an extension to the bridge plate.

That's what I'd do too. Not ideal, but better than trying to remove the plate.

Ditto on the extension -- make sure to scrape out all the glue squeeze so the extension butts well, make a clamping caul to fit, cover it with clear packaging tape to prevent gluing it to the bridge plate. Seen this before, you'll be fine.
