So a year or so ago i slid out and my lower left bumper and lower quarter panel where that pinch weld flap is got pushed in. I had somme previous damage so the guy kinda pulled the damage out and its not as bad. the bumper is just a little scratched up. So to hide the damage i bought rear valances and it covers it fine. However on the bottom right corner of the valance it does not sit flush against the quarter panel. It has about a quarter to half inch of a gap becuase of the damaged quarter panel. So my question is what could i put on the back of the valance that expands or something that could go between the valance and the quarter panel to make up for the gap. i was thinking foam but that would get wet and hold moisture. So anyone with any tips is apprecaited. Also does valances hold moisture because of the plastic on metal and it was obviously hold moisture? thanks pete and i will grab pictures in a little bit.
