rear panel gap

Hello, so i was watching a review of the c207 and noticed the rear bumper and tail lights gap is tight. On my car there is a noticeable gap of a like 10 mm. Its been bought used and has been in an accident, just don't know the suffered damage. I've attached some photos, and would ask if someone else has this, is it normal since it has the amg package bumpers and stuff? It is also the european model

Thank you for your answer. The attachment is very neat and useful, unfortunately the needed dimensions wasn't listed. Just wanted to know if there was supposed to be a gap this big, also the bumper wouldn't move at all which brings me to think that the lights have been readjusted... is it possible to move them around in ex. to make them flush with the bumper?

Some better pics would help. Zoom out and get some wide shots showing both sides at once.

Seriously nothing i would've noticed,,, or worry about. That light is not supposed to be flush with the bumper.
