Tail Light not aligned. =(

The right side of the back seems fine, but on the left it doesn't fit right.

So far the records show there were no accidents but it's just not looking right.

Like the center piece sticks out a bit on the left side.

Is there anyway to fix this.

Also, the trunk lid, also seems to be mis-aligned as well as the left side is higher then the right.

I had the exact same problem when I switched from my stock tail lamps to the 99 specs I had bought. For me, it was when I was looking at the back of the car and its on the right side. I thought the center piece was not tightened enough so i tried to screw it harder but that did not work. Never did get to finish fixing that...

There are screws that hold down these lights, check if the screws are loose and the lights are off alignment.

If the hatch is off too, most likely someone did a poor job in repairing a rear collision. Unless the car was totalled or in a serious accident, car fax doesn't show it.
