just curious if anyone else ran into this problem during installation, do i have the wrong parts, am i missing something, or not doing something right to get them to fit?!

look at the car panel and the bumpers (stock part in the back) something is off right and then look at the spot of the trunk.
please let me know im going nuts!!!!!!!!!!!

It seems that you got the M bumper for the E61 - touring. Check the parts numbers.
