They don't line up with the rear quarter panel at all, they are pushed in about an inch on each side of the car. Is that part of the same problem as the bumper sag? Thanks in advance. 98' Black SVT Build #1915 of 6535

I was going to post a question about it once I had searched to see, but I haven't gotten around to it really yet, so I'll just post here saying I have the same problem. Also mine seem to have the very tip of where it rounds up to meet with the fender sticking out as well as not matching up (not really any sagging but more just not exactly lining up). 98 Black Contour SVT #1273 Born the 23rd of June, 1997

I might have to do the fix tommorow and see if there is a way to push the bumper out, let it be shoving some insulation in there or w/e. 99 TRed Contour SVT # 1853 out of 2760 230.2 WHP @ 6500 237.0 WTR @ 2250 Originally posted by MxRacer: Originally posted by RawBurt: I'll be keeping it to myself, until the time comes.
