ok i know it's not just me that notices this. 9 out of 10 521 front bumpers look like they are tilted up like they've been pushing tractors around or something. have you guys noticed this also. that cant be how their supposed to sit??

i borrowed this one from yevntry70. this is how i see most of them. seems like the sides should curve around like the rear bumperettes.

The bumpers you've seen are obviously bent or the brackets are.

because somebody has been pushing things around. usually its the brackets that bend. they are really weak.
