Borked Fork from Fifty-Four :(

Well, was all set to give the Rotrax a shakedown wobbleCycle and prior to, checking I’d done all the nuts and bolts up properly… swing a leg over the top tube. Hmm. Stem’s out of line. Step off, loosen the bolt, shimmy thing around. Hang on. Somethings not right. Is the wheel buckled? Umm, not so much. The fork crown. Looks out of line. Ah, fuckityHell, the blades are well off.
Anyone have a cure that a. Doesn’t involve a new fork or b. Suggest if this can be col-set-realigned or c. Needs a special skill frame-builder attention?
Honestly, fml
All the things I seem to buy have so many issues. Might just bin everything and go gravel :(
