Hi I was wonder if anybody has some advice for general poor front end body fitment. I brought the car like this and I've had the bumper off numerous times for work and parts and check out what I could to see if anything looked wierd . The front bumper generally doesn't fit as nice as I'd like it to do so , passenger side being worse than drivers . If anybody has and ideas what to try first I'd appreciate it thanks

the trick to get it to line up is to take it off clean up the brackets and inside of the bumper than fit it back on... make sure you actually get the bumper to line up before bolting the sides down, apply some extra pressure while bolting it on in the right spots and it'll sit flush with the rest of the bodywork. (sometimes a tap on those spots is enough but from your picture it's probably in need of reseating)

Front bumper looks like it needs to slide back it’s like it’s not going all the way back like it’s hitting off something behind the bumper
When I say I put my full weight into it pushing back I wouldnt be exaggerating 😂 it was like that when it was completely stock aswell so it's not the front mount as I've mounted it really far back
