Help my bumper is shrinking........!
well...perhaps not....But I have just put my new painted bumper back on. I have got it all lined up nice, and the line between the hood and the bumper fits very nice. But it seems the bumper is to narrow now. The bumper edge won’t align with the hood edge. Its about ¼ “ to narrow in both sides 
How can this be? Where can I adjust this?

If you're talking about the front bumper, and it's not the original one
they take alot of messing with to get them close-you've got a 1/4 less-I've got a 1/4 more-just haven't had time to get back at it.

Are the fog lights hung up on it? The gap is set by the metal bar welded in there, but can get bigger if the bumper is being pulled forward by something. Makes for a crappy wobbly seam when putting the bolts on. It might be hung up on the crash honeycomb also.
