front quarter panel alignment

Has anyone noticed their front quarter panel slightly out of alignment?
I wonder what causes it? Is this an easy thing to fix? Thanks.

My Corvette doesn't have a front quarter panel. Take a pic and let us find out what you are talking about. My car (all my cars and trucks) has a quarter panel and front fender.

I have a similar problem - the front fender sits lower the front bumper next to the headlight - the fender is clipped into a bracket but it sits to low and I can't seam to get them aligned

I will send some pictures in this evening...

I'll rephrase. The drivers side front fender / quarter panel. It's no longer flush with the rocker panel at the bottom. It wasn't like that when I bought it new in October 2007. I checked. I wonder if it's my driveway that has caused it? It's not exactly flat. Here is a photo:
