    If you flex your probably going to bust the tail light

    edit: I looked at the other pics. It looks like the bumper is cut around the tail light

    I have bumped the tail light dropping down the ledges on On Top Of The World... but so far they are still good to go. I will probably still hit them but atleast my bumper will be level while doing it hahah

    With it that far down, I wonder if something bending, so might not hurt to keep an eye on it.

    Yeah that is a valid point. I didn't see any visible bending and I would hope that it wasnt originally installed this way. My theory is that the previous owner tried to play with it but wasn't very mechanically inclined. Thus, the weight of the bumper pulled it back and he didn't know how to readjust.

    I will definitely keep an eye on it and if things start to go awry, I will look into a new rear bumper... *wink *wink @RelentlessFab
