Bumper question
I had my car up on ramps today and while under the car I noticed something strange. Anyone else notice an uneven line in the front rubber bumper where it surrounds the exposed skid bars?
Here is a diagram of what I am talking about.

It looks like some bumpers don't have a smooth cut and it appears more like a crack when the bumper was installed at the factory while trying to get it around the skid bars.

I think this is normal for the C5 front fascia. I'll look tonight when I get home though.

The first time I saw it I thought that I damaged the bumper, but I have not hit any curbs. Too bad they don't use a razor knife or something to make that a straight cut at the factory. It almost looks like a gorilla took the bumper in his hands and tore it and then put it on.
But how many regular drivers crawl around under their cars inspecting every inch?
