Default Would this be a symptom?

of bad bumper shocks?

my NA bumper is closer to the body and "droopy" on one side vs the other. i already have some bumper shocks on the way (snub nose mod) yet just noticed this... pics on the way.

BTW> i am aware of the dents/paintchips/etc. please focus on the gaps with the arrows.

Grab the bumper and yank on it as hard as you can up and down. You will KNOW if it is loose. Good luck. BTW hockeydude- I have driven Olympias and Zambonis for 30 years!

well aren't the shocks the only things supporting this piece of the bumper? if so wouldn't it have to be related to them?

Okay Dan, that's what i was hoping for. The 2 bolts attach to tohe bumper shocks, and are the only things "supporting" the bumper, correct?

There are two bolts that sandwich the 'flange' for lack of a better of term on the bumper shock to the body of the car. There is probably about 1/4 of an inch of lateral adjustment to play around with.
