Is this a problem?
Hey everyone,

So I just installed my depo headlights just yesterday. But for some reason the trim that I had to remove, isn't sitting on the bumper properly, so it's possible for water to get underneath. Would you say its an issue to be worried about?
Picture of it is attached, thanks for any replies!

I reopened it due to what you mentioned, turns out it does have adjustments, now fits perfectly, thanks for the tip!
