I recieved them in the mail a little bit ago and i just test fitted them by holding them up to the car. They dont seem to follow the curve of the car. Like if the bottom is flush against the car the top has a gap. Will the red 3m tape make them conform to the car once they are stuck on?

I had them on mine for about two months and no it won't make them conform. From what I remember I was a little aggravated by the top front corner poking out maybe 1/16" of an inch because I knew it was there. The 3M tape on the scoop is meant to fit around the edge of the window. If you will look at the back side of the scoop you will see that where the tape goes matches the shape of the window. So in pre-fitting you should try to line it up that way and the contour will be as good as it is gonna get.

Try letting them bake out in the sun for a while. I personally didnt do that with mine, since I didnt hear about it until after I already had mine installed, but I have heard that baking parts in the sun helps them to conform and bend better when installed.

Yes, you'll definitely want to leave them in the sun for an hour or two before installation. They'll be pliable and the tape will hold them down correctly.
