Hi Guys,

Just had a mild front ender in my my97 Turbo Now I have got it back there seems to be a bigger gap between between the n/s headlight and the bumper and o/s headlight and the bumper. Is this right surely not?

To put things into perspective I can get a finger between the headlight and the bumper on the n/s and not under the o/s. Everything looks alligned apart from the gap distance. Also there seems to be a bit of overhang 2mm between the sidelights and the headlights there not quite flush........Any help or close up pics of the headlights wopuld be greatly appreciated.

WWithout venturing outside to my car i can say with all confidence that your car ain't right. I recommend you take it right back to the body shop to correct this FOC.
