id ask them to reimburse you the amount it would cost to have hybrid do it, that way it would be done in a few days

especialy if you can easily seperate the mani / turbo / downpipe from the car so lee can bench it instead of doing it on the car

looks like the easiest way to fix it would be to cut the pipe off the mani, grind it and reweld it

^^^  
that doesnt take care of the bolt hoile offset  
that makes the flange weaker on one side  
thats a hack way to fix something on a $5000 turbo kit on a lexus

</div>

what size is the flange?  
if its 1/2" thick and you shave off 1/8" you still have 3/8" to work with.  
but judging by the 2nd pic it looks pretty tight on the lower bend so it could be a bad pipe or something is not installed right so go over everything that is installed and see what went wrong 2nd thing you could do is disconnect the pipe and install to the manifold first and see how it looks from down below.  
good luck.

Tough one…

Considering the time it took you to get your parts in the first place, I wouldn’t send it back.

Hybrid Fix FTW.
