Uneven bumper/body gaps...
I have uneven gaps between the bumper and the area right under the headlights (when comparing the driver's side to passenger's side). I was informed that this can be corrected/adjusted? I didnt' have success in searching 
. Any input is greatly appreciated.

). You just need to make a couple cuts, and you can use the old piece as a reference for these. Makes all the difference in the world!

There is an inner attachment bracket for your bumper which tends to wear out at the fender corner bracketing points. This will affect your bumper vertical alignment (in addition to the 4 bolts that hold the bumper assembly onto your car). About a month ago I replaced this part, and to be honest I had no idea until then how far out of spec my bumper had gotten. Its a $110 part from the dealer, and its a quick replacement (took about 1 hr, .5 of which was spent trying to find some box cutters ). You just need to make a couple cuts, and you can use the old piece as a reference for these. Makes all the difference in the world!
