Grill and Light uneven?

Hello, I was inspecting my car the other day and noticed the left headlight seems to have more space between it and the hood than the right headlight does. Also when I push the left piece of plastic between the grill and headlight, it budges in, but the one on the left is solid. Is anyone's else's like this or is there something wrong with my vehicle?

I've noticed that happen a lot in almost any vehicle. Mine did that and so did my friends c300 and E350. Took it to the dealer and they adjusted some screws and it aligned.
Not a big problem but kinda ticks you off to see a high end brand do that.

There are screws where the fender and the bumper meet that hold the bumper tight. Maybe those came loose.

There is a DIY on bumper removal on the forum. It wasn't difficult, but it was a little time consuming.

Make sure you have a soft surface to lay your bumper down on.

Try pushing down and forward on the grill (not too hard it's plastic) and see if it isn't seated properly. There isn't much holding it down.
