Question front replacement bumper

Ok so I purchased a replacement front bumper for my 07 sport and at 1st glance looked like a close enough set up. The bumper is from bodykits.com and I love the design. The problem is once I removed oem bumper cover and lifted the bumper in place right from the start it is short from the top to the radiator support a bunch! The location the actual steel bumper should set into on this one doesn't allow for any further setting back. If I hold the wheel well section into alignment the part is short about an inch and a half. Any body else deal with aftermarket performance bumpers on these?

Which bumper? It looks like a few of them say they are for the JDM version.

yes it is a jdm version. I did not realize it was when I ordered it. I think I can do some glass work and make it work ok.
