Default Hai Guys...Shelby Bumper Issue

We have a 08 Shelby that the local ford dealer sent to us because they can't seem to fix the rear bumper on this thing. It keeps coming loose out of the guides, they have worked on it, and it keeps coming back, so now it has come to us. We thought we had it fixed, but it is going to be coming back again less than 3 days later. Is this an issue on Shelby's? Is there a fix you guys know about? or is this less of a Shelby, more of a S197/Ford problem? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Can you post any pictures of the bumper? I have heard of some problems but really pretty rare.

The side brackets are not tight enough against the sheet metal so the bumper slots keep popping out of bracket tabs. Try re-align it upward.
Or them tabs could be broken...
