Default Seibon Duckbill, bad fitment

I was looking for a perfect fit wing for my total civic rebuild project. Seibon was my 1st choice. But im not satisfied with the fitment. It has a 3/4 inch gap on each side of chassis.
Is this really a seibon wing, or have i bought a crap wing ???

PS, dont mind the baby toys.. :-)

ouch... thats terrible.

My eBay CF duckbill fits 100x better than that.

Im pretty sure you have a legitimate complaint and they should send you a new one.

Btw, its fitted tight against the tailgate. I looks like thats the problem, but theres no room for adjusting better than you already see.

It looks Legit, i would send the pics to Seibon and ask for another one. I have heard that some of the high dollar ones dont fit, but the Ebay ones do.

My Seibon is the same way. Not quite as bad, but still looks awkward.
