Icon2 roof spoiler/visor fitment issues *PICS*

Hey guys, is this how the "EGR replica" roof visor suppose to line up on a DC integra? The 3M adhesive in the center only touches the glass by a pinch even with force. I wanna know if this is just the fitment because, well that's China for you or if I got a roof visor for a different Honda. I bought this off of eBay so I'll be able to tell the seller if it is the wrong roof visor. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

No, the sellers auction stated it was for a 94-01 Integra 2dr. This is the image from the auction. I notice that both of the examples used in the pic line up nicely at the top. I e-mailed the seller telling them I'm pretty sure they sent me the wrong roof visor. Hopefully they refund my money and I still get to keep it. Thing is probably only $15 wholesale.

If I get a full refund, then it's like I got this for free and I wouldn't care about the fitment; my car ain't going to be in a car show anytime soon.

Looks like its the right one...
If you look at the first picture in the ad the middle section lines up perfect while the sides go up higher.

I've tried. The side part of the visor gets in the way and raises the center part (hovers above the glass) of the visor up about an inch.

Look at the second image i posted where it shows the side part of the visor. In this picture of an Integra that has the same visor, the sides are in the same spot where mines is in the picture, but the center piece on that one is also flush to the lining of the back windshield.
