Right Rear Reflector

[MichaelRB]

Has anyone noticed if their right rear reflector is a little more flexible then the left? My right reflector can be pushed in a bit, im not sure if this is supposed to be like that or is a tab not all the way in or worse

Your car is probably going to fall apart next time you drive it.

I'm just curious lol. i have my 90-day check up coming up next month. I want to make a list of things just in case.

[MichaelRB]

Mine doesn't have this issue. They're both tight. I would have them look at it.

That wouldn't concern me as much as the oversized gaps between body panels and the seperation of my windshielf seal from the winshield washer housing or the oil leak from my oil filter housing or the squeeling noise my fans make when my car is running after being shut off to cool off the ac condenser. Yeah, I have that many problems

ugh, so im probably going to wait till my 90 day at the end of june to have them look at it. Im kind of feeling like maybe a tab is broken because the right side of the rear reflector has way to much play. Maybe its just not seated properly or something, Im not sure but im not too confident in fooling around with that.

i have this "issue", I usually notice it after I drive the car like i stole it... I dont know if driving it hard makes the rear diffuser flex more and push that reflector in, but whatever, not a big deal for me.

Leave me and my race car driving skills out of it its not a huge issue just little quirks that when i notice it bothers me. lol

lay a towel down, and lay under the rear diffusor. you should be able to see the rear of the reflector..there are two tabs holding it in place.

lol, i'll tell ya what, afterwork I will take pictures of the underside of the diffuser and in return can you do the same?

none of the clips are broken nor are they 'un-clipped' when i notice this, i can reach under to the rear of the reflector and push it out to realign it but nothing ever gets unclipped or loose, so ionno

[MichaelRB]

Ok, I will too. I should be getting it washed after work so ill post some pics in general too

Sorry to resurrect a dead thread, but my rear right reflector actually fell out somewhere!
I came back from a VERY spirited drive, and when I parked my car, I noticed that it had fallen out somewhere. This is really annoying, as those stupid things cost about $40, and I had mine smoked, so that's an additional cost.

Now I'm not sure whether it's the driving that did it, or the fact that I just installed a sub on that side of the trunk... Either way, I need a new one, since now you can see the bumper where it used to be, and it looks like absolute crap.

Does anyone have a way to look up the part # for me? I was hoping to find it online for less than the dealer's price...

how are you addressing those issues with the dealer with all the mods that you have done?

Thanks

Turns out, they are going to replace it under warranty, since it didn't fall out as a result of damage, but on its own.
