  • Is this wrong or am I just being picky?

    Here is a picture of my brand new camaro's front end, near the wheel well ... is this supposed to be like this, or should I go and talk to the dealer?

    mine was like that too, if they jack the car up sometimes they bend the jack posts on it, it is easy to fix, just get on the ground and take a hammer to the jack plate, it will straighten it right back up, make sure the door doesnt rub on it, no big deal

      yeah, follow the body panel under the car, you will see where it ends and there is a little flap with 2 bolts on it i think. That thing shoudl be vertical, if its not that means they jacked it up from there at some point and bent em. either bend it back carefully or take it to dealer. You always have to tell people to watch out for it, some get pissy cause they know already but cant be too careful.

        Easy solution : duct tape + curse words.

              I took my firebird under warranty to the dealer for that - they snapped my panel back in for me no problemo. Go have it fixed if its under warranty [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]
