    So I had to have my front bumper repainted due to someone hitting me. I got it back and they messed it up. Had to bring it back to have them redo it. I just noticed there's a gap now between my bumper and skid plate. I don't remember it being there before. I have attached pictures, did they forget to put something back?

    Unfortunately they did not, I looked at another taco and it also has a gap there.


    Thanks for the info.

    Thought they forgot to put a panel back on. But it's a normal gap that I never noticed.

    Reason I was wary was because I had to return to have them repaint the bumper after they "repaired it"

    No kidding. Yesterday night I went for a run at 9pm and it was still 89F degrees outside. Today was much better though here in San Diego.
