Sorry to see this OP. Sadly, this happens fairly often with body kits, even authentic ones. I know of people who've spent over $4k for a body kit, only to have it fit like crap and require extensive labor to remedy things.

I hope it all works out. If anyone's at fault, it's TOM's.

Wow beautiful lip. Too bad it doesn't fit properly. Let us know the outcome of your fitment issues! Wondering if you just got a bad lip or this is a known problem.

did a shop install it for you? if so, have them do it again or take it to another shop. the first time i had my tom's rear lip installed, it was perfect with no gaps. a year later i had to get it re-installed at a different shop and there were gaps at both corners.
