It is definitely warped, whether that will be an issue or not I can't say. The spoiler is made from a somewhat flexible plastic and once the stop light is fitted it may force it Into place. I do know Jaguar had some warranty claims due to warping so I would suggest contacting the seller for more feedback regarding your concerns.

thanks, thought it looked a bit funny and price may reflect that, there's another guy selling a few as well if you care to view, maybe all warped, what do you think

The light unit should push it into the right shape; that section of the spoiler doesn't appear to have much rigidity on its own.
