Bumper Kind of Sags?
I've noticed this a few days after I bought it, but haven't been driving lately so completely forgot about it, until today. It's a minor thing, but it kind of bugs me...
http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8293/7...5920f25c_c.jpg http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8297/7...e83d51d1_c.jpg See how the bumper/hood line on the left side is bigger than the right side? None of my friends noticed it until I mentioned it, but as the days go on, it's starting to bug me more and more. Do you think I could bring this into a dealership and get it fixed? Or do I just have to deal with it >_< And just FYI, the second picture was taken the day I got the car, with the first picture taken about a week after, it doesn't seem to be getting worse as I drive more, since the gap is about the same as today. Any ideas? |
Sure it's not the hood that is slightly bent? I know those things are a light weight alloy, the one at my dealership was slightly bent from someone closing it too hard.

i see it
you *may* be able to get the hinges adjusted so its not so obvious but i doubt the dealer would do it - they may get an associated panel beater to though... but doubtful... likely response is = 'they're all like that' |
they're all like that
|
That's why I got a dark color, it's less noticeable.
But I think that's a normal thing in cars, even my cousin's 2010 Benz c300 is like that. More noticeable than the FRS actually. |
They're not all like that, my friend has a firestorm FR-S, his is perfect.
|
The dealer should be able to make some small adjustments to eliminate the gap or at least make it less noticeable.
|
what am i looking for because I dont see any sagging.
|
i took my bumper off and reinstalled it and noticed the same thing...ended up being the black plastic moulding that is on top of the bumper and cushions the hood...see if adjusting that helps...
|
my rear sags too
wait that sounds aweful |
My BRZ hood/bumper does something very similar in that exact area. In fact, you can tell the gap on the passenger's side is slightly larger than the driver's side.

If it's sagging, get a front end bra mate
:bellyroll: |
:laughabove: See if Victoria's Secret makes one!

Here's some real saggin' for you.
