hey guys,
my rear bumper on the left hand side where it meets the rear quarter panel is not sitting flush anymore, there is a little gap between the quarter and the bumper and i can see the rivets in between the gap. my question is how can i fix it or adjust it so it sits without the gap? if it helps too it was caused when i had a little bit of a tight squeeze in the garage and pushed the bumper in on that side. cheers. |

Or if it's the other two bolts in the boot I found Undoing them getting someone else to push the bumper up to where u want it then doing the nuts up super tight works sometimes and keeps it in place
