Default Need pictures for reference.

I'm having some fitment issues with bumpers, headlights and taillights to quarter panels. I posted some of this in the body section but didn't get a lot of responses or help so I'm going to try here.

Can anyone post pictures of the trunk to bumper fitment? When I push the bumper all the way flush with the trunk bracket the holes for the clips don't line up causing the bumper to push out with the clips in place. Nothing seems to be damaged or bent so I don't know what could be causing the fitment issues.






Also do these look normal?
Trunk bracket with bumper off.


Quarter panel to trunk.

Thread from the dead I know, but my car is almost identical to yours with that gap on the passenger rear. Its never been wrecked but from what I've heard from the local s2k specialty shop he sees it on lots of the AP1s. Not sure if its a temperature, weather, or build quality issue. Mine is similar to yours but it sits pretty flush w/the taillight, just the corner pokes a little w/a roughly 1/4" gap.

Loosen the bumper screw near the rear tire, have somebody push on the back of the bumper to close the gap, tighten the screw. It will look good for a while but will return.

The hole in the bumper that screw goes in is a slot which allows it to move front to back. I keep thinking I should make something to fill the slot and keep the bumper aligned better.
