I am not by my car now to double check, but something doesn't look right in those photos. There may be a tiny bit of gap even on mine, but what's with the holes visible under the door sill? Are they visible on both driver and passenger sides? On mine, the sliders run flush right under the sills, 99% sure there are no "holes" visible there, they are all covered by the upper edge of the sliders. Did you remove the lower acoustic cover of the compressor? If you have a 2011 you should have the old style Hitachi pump (unless the compressor was replaced in the past year or two), so no need for the "lift" bracket, but the bottom acoustic cover still needs to be removed for a proper fit. Otherwise, you may want to drop them and start from scratch, it doesn't appear they went up right. Did you tighten the heck out of all those bolts? It's almost as if the 6 outer bolts (not the 2 big body mount ones) were loose or something.
