    Default Hmmm something is not right here..

    I noticed a while ago while at the gas station my front bumper seems to be pushed in on the driver side...
    Take a look at the pic and notice how the tire sticks out and the bumper is pushed in.. What would cause this?

    there's a plastic shield that is supposed to go around the wheel well. It holds the bumper out. Mine is the same way. Sorry, i dont know exactly what they call that shield.

    its the plastic inner fender. looks like the front bumper itself came loose from the inner fender and is sagging in. or the inner fender is smashed in and is pulling the bumper inwards. Just crawl under and look, wont be hard to figure out.

    i guess its just called a fender splash shield. Find one at a junk yard and it will push that bumper back out like its supposed to be.

    Could have happened going over a bump or a pothole or something. Might just have got pushed in and caught, and would be as simple as unbinding it from it's "stuck" position.

    I hate it. It's that stupid viglink they're running on the forums. It annoys the hell out of me. First time I saw it I ran a virus scan. >_>
