lights and corners out of place

i have noticed that my head lights and my corners are out of place
my uncle was the last person that owned it ( he bought it brand new off the show room floor) and its been crashed serveral times but i was wondering if any one knew how to align the head lights and the corners

If I remember right, the corners alignment is part of the fender's position. If the fender is dented a littler, it might cause your corner light to be high. It's something you'll have to pull them out, and compare the body shape of the fenders against each other.

Yes, noticeable. Needs some better pics, nearer, hood open. So that only corner light fills the pic...

Take the corner light out, more pics.

If the snap on piece in the mainlight assy is ok, the support in the corner light is ok, these will force the lamps to be aligned. Either one is broken or just plain not connected (RH)

I'm guessing that you've had the bumper cover replaced and it doesn't fit exactly right. A lot of the aftermarket ones are like that.

yeah, I was also in a few accidents here and there. i agree with craig. aftermarket parts dont always fit. even now, everytime i close my hood or open it, the rear part of it clips the wipers. that sucks. anyway, if you think your gap is bad, let me make you feel better
