Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

My wife had an unfortunate collision with our garage, visually the front bumper has a small dent and some paint crazing, that looks like a re-paint will address. My issue is that the bumper on the one side now sits a little lower about 1/8 -1/4 inch bigger gap below the headlight. To my knowledge there are no brackets to bend behind the bumper, so if the fix a new bumper? Or can the gap somehow be adjusted?

A qualified body/paint shop can advise you. The bumper cover will be removed and the extent of the damage determined. Likely the bumper is cracked and will have to be replaced. A new one will fit just like well, a new one. There will be no gap afterwards. Oh, do both headlights have the same feel at the top where they mount/reisde at the top of their respective fender? If not then the head light may have been knocked out of alignment and this can require more work to repair. But the body/paint shop will spot this right away. Sincerely, Macster.

the bumper slides in with guides... they are adjustable, Im sure the guides can be re-positioned to proper fitment.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
