2016 Type R Rear Diffuser
For those who have a 2016 Type R with the body colored rear diffuser, how flush is it to the rest of the rear bumper? Do any of your clips not appear to be fastened completely?
I'll try and take a pic tomorrow with better light, but my farthest right clip (when looking at the rear of the car) is not inserted completely. I got under the car to see if I could push it in further, but no go. As a result, I'm left with a tiny gap which now my eye goes to right away and annoys me! And my car is white, so it looks even more noticeable. My dealer isn't exactly close and I'd rather avoid going if someone else has experienced this and can recommend how to man handle the diffuser without breaking it

Enough of a gap that it bothers you to schedule an appt with the dealer?
I also would have liked for my front right winglet (for lack of a better term) to be more flush with the front bumper. It's as if they didn't use enough double sided tape between the screw points.

I'm taking it for a service appointment on Monday to fix it and other issues.
Here's a picture.

I picked up my new F-Type R this past weekend, and I noticed that the rear diffuser is not fully in on the left side. It moves in and out easily and looks as if the clips are not connected - not what you'd expect for this price At least it didn't fall off..

I'll add my pics shortly if I can capture the suspected area. I'm also thinking, once the weather warms up, along with the diffuser, I may be able to work it back in myself--again mine isn't as significant as yours
