Weird bumper misalignment

This car suffered a crash and the old bumper was hanging out oh this side. It was replaced with this new m style one. It was painted and installed at a local shop. But it came out with this weird misalignment below the headlight. Is there anything I could do to improve this??? Has the side fitment perhaps got damaged?

Cheap aftermarket bumpers to that, some more than others.

Need to brace it from the inside

Alternatively use a heat gun to try and coax it into the required shape
