Strange Indentation On Rear Bumper After having my T/A for 6 years...never noticed a slight indentation on the rear bumper. I noticed it while putting some wax on it.
Examined the outter portion for paint damage, cracks on the clear and nothing...just a slight indentation when I run my finger across the outter portion of the bumper....the "slight dip" is located directly behind the license plate bulb assembly.
Has anyone else noticed something like this on their setup??

The outter portion is perfect...its just for a small dip thats all.
I have to see if I can locate other T/A's in the area and see of they have the same or simliar slight indent.

So I may have been a factory flaw?? Man after 6 freaking years of polishing and waxing I never noticed that damn indent.
But you have it too ??

It's most likely from the heat, my dad had the same problem with his Aurora the front bumper (top part) would dip in ,in the summer, then come winter it would go back to normal, very weird.
