I added TK-8180 support a little while ago, so you should have it:

https://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/repository/entry/chirp/drivers/tk8180.py

I'm guessing maybe the driver does actually exist for you, but you're seeing the failure because it's not registering? It requires the python-future module to register itself, so if you're missing that, it won't actually show up. On ubuntu "apt-get install python-future". Otherwise: "pip install future".
