Default 2013 991 body GAP concern

Good day all,

I have a 2013 911 991 C4 with only 15Kmiles which is in absolute immaculate condition. I bought the car last May 2020 with 2yrs of CPO, and I was so focus on the rest of the car that I missed seeing the gap differences. I don't see anything anywhere showing the car was in an accident previously and looked under the hood to see if the bolts were tempered with. I would expect for a high end automobile to have symmetrical gap lines. This is my 1st Porsche so I don't have experience with the car and the history, not sure if this is normal for the 911's. Trying to get educated and hopefully someone can shine some light on this.

Assuming no prior collision history because I'm sure you checked the Carfax, it may need an adjustment to frunk lid. I would let the Porsche body shop look at it.

It might just be a simple frunk lid adjustment. Let the Porsche body shop look at it.

Thank you for the advise, I assumed it was properly just a simple adjustment. It's just doesn't make sense a car with 15K miles will show outer body panel shift, in this case the hood. I will have to look into getting it checked out. I wasn't sure if it's a common with 911's.
