So today when I woke up I walked to my car, and noticed that my rear bumper the left dude is hanging ? It's not in the floor or anything like that there's just a small gap from where the bumper and the rest of the car meet. Any ideas of how to fix this ? Or maybe a thread on this thank you ! All help is appreciated !


id post a picture up . But have no idea how to post it on here ?

    unfortunately it just looks like a bit of warping to me? Its been a while since ive removed the rear bumper, but you may wanna take the rear bumper off and see if you can create some sort of shim or something to suck it back up to the tail lamp?

    or you could remove the tail lamp and little "L" shaped trim piece and try to deal with it from there... that is if you dont want to take the rear bumper off...

    My buddy had the same thing. He had an old shift knob that he had got at the junkyard just laying around. He jammed it up in there, and you can't tell it was ever warped! :encouragement:

    i believe this is the metal bracket thing that gets bent, bringing the bumper down. i've had same issue before, i just push it back up from underneath.
    looks like you got it all taken care of though ;)
