I know you deleted your original question but....

I did not find in the WIS how to adjust the bumper covers. I found the factory panel gap requirements and how to adjust the doors, hood and trunk, but nothing specific for the covers. So I did some searching...

Pelican Parts has a series of instructions/images on how to remove the front and back bumper covers. You can probably figure it out with this information. Looks like there are a couple bolts that you can mess with and with the play in the bolt holes get them to line up better. May have to mess with the tail light as well.

Good luck if you decide to tackle it.. I have a few gaps I need to address so I will probably be trying this as well.

Hey, thanks for the reply. It's barely noticeable to an unsuspecting eye if at all. It's my 3rd 204 and I've always been adamant about small issues such as this. Also, you can't help and not notice minor details such as this especially on a car such as the w204.


I'm prolly going to leave it alone and not push my luck. I looked at the pelican site too and it honestly seems more of a headache to try and mess with it.

To sum it up I guess I answered my own question...lol 😂

Are you the mod? If so, would you be able to delete the thread/post?

No problem..

I am not a MOD but I would just let it ride.. Someone someday may have the same question.
