You should have 2-3 screws that will hold it down so it wont rub on the door...that's how it was with my Vizage kit.

A pic of it on the car would really help because WW kits fit OEM, so I don't know why your's isn't matching up.

Just make sure you have your doors open and you'll see where it goes.
