Did I get the wrong slim washer tank?

Hey guys, I bought foglights and a slim washer tank off the forum to fit on my IPL front bumper. Got the foglights installed nice and snuck and then tried to fit the washer tank and realized there is no way for the washer tank to fit with the foglight in place. I was convinced it was the slim tank because it is a smaller than my OEM tank that I just removed but still doesn't fit. As far as I read any 2011+ slim washer tank would work to fit the foglights for the IPL. Pictures attached.

You can see the hole isn't even close to lining up.

that could be a sedan slim washer. the bottom corner of urs looks funny like its warped. see my for sale thread to see wat a coupe slim washer should look like. there might be a part number imprinted on the washer tank. if that is the sedan one theres a guy in my for sale thread looking for a sedan slim washer u can sale that and buy mines lol good luck!

Hmm that's odd because I installed it without the foglight in place and it fit perfectly. Guess I did get a sedan washer tank.

Bought it off the forum, seller told me it was a slim tank. Guess it was not.
