Curt Class V hitch # C15324 is designed to install on your 2003 Cadillac Escalade EXT without any trimming so it should fit snug to the frame without the bumper getting in the way. The written instructions, which are linked for you, make no mention of the need to do any mods for the hitch to fit.

It is possible that the bumper cover on your 2003 Escalade EXT may be shifted slightly from its original position. Plastic materials like bumper covers can change shape slightly from years of UV exposure. Please double check the hitch part number to confirm it is the specific hitch made for your vehicle.

For reference here are all of the vehicles this hitch is intended to fit:

2003 - 2006 Chevrolet Avalanche
2003 - 2006 Cadillac Escalade
2003 - 2006 Cadillac Escalade EXT
2003 - 2006 Chevrolet Suburban
2003 - 2006 Chevrolet Tahoe
2003 - 2006 GMC Yukon
2003 - 2006 GMC Yukon XL

If the hitch is brand new and was just shipped to you it may have been damaged in transit. If a hitch gets bent during shipping it CAN be corrected. Please refer to the linked article.
