So I had my front bumper repainted bc of rock chips, and it seems like there is a hump under the headlights. I can't remember if it was there before it got painted, but does this look normal or I'd the body shop install the bumper wrong?

Since you paid a body-shop to do the work, take it back there until it's right.

If you want to do it yourself, simply slide the bumper off and reinstall. The bodyshop may have installed the bumper on too quickly and didnt pay attention to snap the bumper in right below the headlights.

Yeah, I was going to bring it back to the shop anyway, because of some dimples in the paint. It definitely needs to be redone in my opinion. I just wanted to make sure that wasn't normal before I went up there. Thanks guys

Sometimes you can press down on that corner area of the headlight with your thumbs, and it'll click/snap right it.

I don't want to risk anything, then the bodyshop has some excuse not to fix other panels that need to be fixed. I'm callig them tomorrow
