Front bumper alignment

Getting through a few jobs on my latest project, is there a quick fix for this or does the bumper have to come off? Its only the drivers side edge that's protruding, the rest is all fitting nicely.

I would imagine it's had a little knock and bent the inner bumper section, it's easy to pop the bumper off and check/straighten it, I did it several times after using the front bumper on fatty off roader.... Whistle

If you do it on your own put lots of something soft down to rest the bumper on while you unplug the electrics... Thumbs Up Pete

I’ve got exactly the same dent in exactly the same place in my black fatty, must be a blind spot like the rear 3/4 panels on focus’s that seem to always be bashed! 2007 TDV8 Vogue SE

Wayne's is the earlier model, the bumper is thinner and although that looks like a dent it isn't it's the shape of the bumper, his is just not in line with the wing...

Should look like this...Thumbs Up

Its on a 2007 car, Bumper is not damaged as far as I can tell, it's just protruding a cm or so. A quick look and I can see the wheel arch liner has been out before and only the front lower screw is in place, all other fixings are absent so was hoping something inside the arch liner was left out. So much for only the supplying main dealer has ever done work on this One owner car... 2007 TDV8 VSE

Finally got around to looking into this, turned out as simple as poor-fitting from the last person to mess with the bumper. So this one-owner car, only ever been to the supplying dealer for work had one screw holding the RH wheel arch liner in place, the screws on the under-engine cover to bumper all missing, both headlight lower screws missing, the tow eye cover held on with self tappers and the bumper not engaged into the slide on the driver's side plus the outside temperature sensor wedged in a gap, not affixed to the rear of the grill. I also took the opportunity to fit some new 5000k hid bulbs as the headlights were out.
