Front bumper alignment issue
Having had the front bumper resprayed because of all the stone chips the car came back with the bumper alignment out around the headlights. The guy in the body shop has tried again to align it but said he can't get it any better. Is there any way to pul these in? See pics. Thanks.


There are built in clip catches that the bumper plastic should engage in at that point, it can be nerve-racking trying to pull it straight out and it's possible there has been some damage when it was pulled out.
I think I'd look at checking the bumper is clipped in correctly to start with. There are some good pics here of the bolts and the "hooks" under the headlight.

It's pretty fiddly to be honest. When the bumper is pulled off it flexes and I'm not 100% sure it ever goes back just right. I would say its the front clip in the outer edge of the bumper though as that sits right next to the light. It could also be the bracket the bumper slides into on the corner is a little bit bent, mine was so it didn't quite sit right until I sorted it.
