Default More Help - One More Question
Does the space between the bumper and hood look too big. I thought RMM fit better than this. I can stick my fingers between the two.

I think the gap is unacceptably large in both cases.

Hmmm....I wonder why it is like that. I have to take the care back in friday because they need to redo the Xpel on the headlight and straighten out the left side of the bumper a little. I see if they can fix the gap too. I thought it looked kinda of large too. The bumper is on really tight though, so I don't know how much more adjustment can me made to make the gap smaller. Maybe it is Rod Millens "bad fitting" manufacturing like their grill.
