no, after a red 06 dakota trx4, a red 09 ram 1500 hemi, a red 11 fx4 and a red 13 fx4 - well, I wanted something different this time and quite happy with the change.

So the suggested 'fix' is to loosen the 4 nuts slightly that hold the front bumper to the frame, adjust in the slide area just enough to put a bit of space then? Im still going to swing by the body shop and see if they will give me the confidence to do it or just wing it myself.

Yes two 21mm nuts on each frame rail bracket. Lossen just a little and bump the steel bumper down with your fist until it looks right. Tighten nuts and recheck. I work in a body shop and see it on nearly every one. Three others guys as well as me own these trucks and all had it but five minutes and done. Stand as far away as possible for the best view.

This exactly. Went by the body shop and they were all just not doing too much. Talked to the shop manager, then we went out and I described this to them. They knew of the issue but never touched one.

10 minutes later and all better. One of the shop guys was going to pull his in and fix it.
