Can any LCR owners help me out? I have just had a new rear bumper put on as some goon crunched it. Now the gap between the top of the tailpipe and the bottom of the cutout looks much bigger. What should the gap be and is there anyway of adjusting the back box to suit?
Did a search but couldn't find owt, Thanks in advance.:help:

perhaps the body shop had to drop the backbox off its hangers to fit the bumper and they haven't re-fitted it properly? or maybe they had to change the rubber hangers and used longer ones?

Was it only the bumper that was damaged?

if everything bodywork wise is where it should be then it is simply a case that the exhaust is in the wrong position, stick your head under the car and have a look.

Yeah just the bumper mate, no other damage. I'll check the position underneath cheers. But what gap is normal? about 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch?

of the LCR's i've seen i reckon the gap is about an inch. But whatever you like the look of to be honest, you can bend the metal arms on the backbox to reduce the gap .
