rear fascia problem

I had to take off the rear fascia the other day. It went back on no problem, but I've noticed that the sharp tip by the rear quarter panel sticks out a bit. It's not flush like the rest of the fascia. This could just be me being anal, but I don't think it was like that before. Anyone else notice this on your car? The tip sticks out just a tiny bit on both sides of the car.

I'm having this exact same problem, i just took my car to the body shop and In my case it was from them replacing my previous damaged bumper with a aftermarket one so it caused a improper fit, but mine bulges out more than just the edge, I've compared to several other camaros and theirs always looks more flush

I cruised a Chevy lot the other day and they had 4 2014's sitting in a row. All 4 had this on the drivers side and my 2011 also has it.

OK, thanks. It might have been like this all along. There is a little bolt right at that spot. I loosened it again, pushed in and then tightened. This might have helped a tiny bit, but it's still not perfect. It sounds like this is somewhat "normal."

Sure, no prob. I'm not actually sure what the offsets are. I think they are all custom. Try to PM Jurrian at Modbargains. They cut me a pretty good deal. Anyway, the front wheels are 20x10 and rear are 20x11. Tires are 275/35/20 front, 295/35/20 rear. Supposedly, the Pilot Super Sports run a bit wide.

Let me know if you have any questions. I can PM you with his email address if you want.

Thanks alot for the size's, I'll try to PM Jurrian for the offsets. Does running a 20x10 up front with those size tires cause any rubbing during almost full lock turns?

I really like the fitment you have, probably the best I've seen on a Camaro.

Thanks again,

Thanks. No, I haven't noticed any rubbing, or any issues at all. One thing I forgot to mention, in the pics you see, my car is lowered. When I switched to this tire size, the wheel gap actually increased a bit. It didn't look terrible, but it looks way better now, IMO. Definitely something to think about. I got my Hotchkis lowering springs from JPD Motorsports and had a local shop install them. I really love this wheel setup
