Recently picked up a brand new 2019 C63S Sedan and have noticed the passenger side skirt black trimming is not completely flush on one end.
Does anyone know how to fix this? Does anyone else have this issue?
Drivers side is perfect and no issue, sits perfectly flush.
Am i best off getting the dealer to look at this or is it a simple fix?
Pushing it back on doesn't seem to work, it goes back to the same place. Do I need to use more force to get it to "click" back on? How do these clips attach?

Reason: More info
This is a common issue. Mine did the same twice. Both times I had to take it in to have them fix it. So apparently the double sided tape they use sucks. So the third time this happened, I fixed it myself by removing all the existing tape and using stronger bonded 3M tape.
Like so many things on these cars, the QC is not that good. My rear bumper cover is not evenly aligned with the other panels. The other panel gaps are a bit inconsistent as well. Most of it's only noticeable to the really OCD, including myself.

Yep, both sides for my car have gone. Replaced by local dealer under warranty. Not great, but same comments - official sticky stuff that Mercedes says doesnt work well. They have told me the same thing, goes again, they will resort to something stronger and better.
