Last week my father picked up his VS Commodore from the crash shop after having it repaired from a bingle. Upon inspecting the area where the bumper aligns with the headlight/indicator area on the left side there is a 10mm gap, where as on the other side the bumper sits flush with the headlamp. After speaking to the crash assessor and the manager of the crash shop, they tell me this is common with these cars "You cannot get a perfect fit" and "Thats how they came out the factory". Can anyone out there confirm if that is the case with VR/VS bumper bars? :bang:
