Default 997.2 Tail Light Alignment to Engine Lid

My OCD is setting in again. I recently removed my tail lights to do a full paint restoration and i can't seem to get the aligned to the engine lid again. My right taillight is always a bit more indented vs the lid than the left. Is there a trick to this?

If they are similar to the 997.1, there is a slot that the "pointy" end of the light slides in to the body - did you get that done properly when you reinstalled?

Yup, those are in. I think it may now just be my mind messing with me. I pulled out a ruler and it is even even though it still looks lime the engine lid is a tad higher on the right side.

I must have serious mental issues
