Yea. I slammed it a few times just to make sure. I can almost fit a finger inside the gap on the left. I had the car sitting on the pinch rails when jacked up. Didn't plan for it to rain that long. But still, the rails shouldn't have tweaked the fender or lights. It's going to bother me until fixed. I wonder if a shop would be able to fix it.

You may not have seated the bumper cover up under the headlight all the way. Unbolt the inner fender bolts and the upper fasteners and work the bumper up into the slot under the headlight.

The 4 clips under the headlight? I tried and everything appears flush. Pretty sure I'll be removing the damn bumper again when it warms up

Yes -- sometimes those do not get seated right. That is what is looks like.

Thanks. I'll hopefully be able to rip the bumper off again wednesday with a spare set of hands and take a deeper look at everything. I was wondering if the wheel fender liner would have had anything to do with it as well? That's the only other thing I really had to tug on to get to the single bolt behind it.

I only look at the relevant ones, or one.

Looking at the pics in the other thread, I think Mr. onze may be right. It appears it is not seating all the way under the light.
