That looks terrible, I would be taking that crap back, and have them fix it, there must be a way, even if it involves getting a new front peice, from either GM, or a junkyard, get that fixed.

I dont think that is a problem with the bumper, I think its with the way it mounts to the car. Were you in an accident? My gf was in one with her grand am and i did the body work with new bumpers/hood/fender. later to find out the frame was tweaked just enough for the driver side not to line up right. her accident was only at like 10mph, her air bags didnt go off but enough stress to the one side so nothing fits right. Just my 2 cents
