theres two problems and i know this from experience; its happened and ive corrected it on all four of my fourth gen birds. Either 1) your fenders warped becuase it sits in the sun a lot and after all our fenders are simple plastic which makes them very susceptible to sun damaged they can only grow and shrink so many times before some of it becomes permanent. or and/or a combination 2) the little metal bracket where the rear of your fender connects to the body is out of whack and your fenders pushing out on your ground effects. If this is the case then its as simple as taking off the two bolts and droping this piece from between your fender and your car and laying against something flat and punding it back into a 2-d object rather that a 3-d.
OR
you side skirt has the problem as opposed to the above stated which would stem from your fender. In this case you probably need more double sided adhesive body tape cause your has lost its stickyness due to too much sun and or dirt.
if it isnt any of these, p[lease let us know. Everyone i know has fixed it with these few probl;ems if you encounter something new please let us know!
