Mach-E Trunk gap alignment help

[Sosrip27]

A friend/member came up for the weekend and yesterday, we removed his front bumper cover because he wanted to paint the lower trim area. Figured we could detach it from the cover and it would be easier to paint. Well, that did not happen. After taking the front bumper cover off, we found there were so many tab/clips holding that trim on that it was extremely difficult to take it off. Decided to just paint the trim piece while on the bumper cover.

Since you are not taking off the trim but want to reattach it, maybe you can lift the car and remove the large plastic under shield then you may be able to push that lower shutter grill area back into the bumper cover. Just a thought.

I took some photos yesterday in case you are interested in seeing what the backside looks like. I marked just a couple of the tab/clips but they are every few inches or so and very stiff so trying to pry them free could end up breaking the tabs.

Damn, Mark! You are awesome! This definitely helps me and gives me the confidence to attempt it on my own. I'll let you know how it turns out!!
