Default What the @#%$ is wrong with my driver side headlight/corner light?

They fit like crap. The passenger side is PERFECT! Minimal space between the corner and headlamp, prefect gap between. Then on the driver side they are overlapping almost. Also, where the hood and bumper meet the headlight, there is a huge gap. It is like the whole headlamp needs to be pushed over towards the centerr of the car at least a 1/4 of an inch...Anyone have similar problems, or is my car a Peice of ****!!!!??????

Thanks for any assistance that can be given....

So i'm guessing your car is a salvaged title? Probly previous accident ruined the frame alignment.

Nah, its not salvaged, but Not sire if it has been wrecked, I thought it all lined up before i took them out at the body shop, but now I am not sure, it is pretty off alignment, i thought I would have recognized it....

Hmm not salvaged. Then possibly a wreck if you know its been in one or not. Make sure its fited absolutley correctly. Mayb the corner light clip is a little bent or something. Other than that mayb a body shop could tell you if any thing isnt aligned. But you know, not every car is perfect. its just learning to live with those imperfections. even if they really suck good luck.

take your headlight and corner out again and reinstall them. who ever put them back in may have been in a hurry and didnt make sure everything was lined up well. also it may jus be your bumper not sitting correctly......
