Default Gap between the tail light and bumper

Hey, guys. I'm new here, just got my baby couple months ago. Long story short, when I was removing the wax from car, I notice there a pretty big gap between the tail light and the rear bumper. I'm just wondering is this normal? Or this is something that I need to tell my dealer? Anything helps! I will attach the pictures.

I had noticed that too when I was detailing my car. I guess its just the way they made the car? Never bother calling the dealership since Ive never hit anything. But keep us posted if you decide to clarify with them

I noticed that as well when installing my red LED turn signals, I think is normal for our cars

Normal. So long as it's consistent on both sides, you have nothing to worry about.
