Rear Fasia

Anyone have any experience in straightening out the bottom area of the rear fascia? Mine's all warped from exhaust heat and it's bugging me.

Photos Please! That way we can see the warping you are talking about.

Here are a couple of photos. It's just the typical 'smile' that all the Ds get, it just bugs me.

Are all the studs attached to the lower closing plate? I looks a little funky from what I can see. I have the smile too, but mine does not bulge in the slotted hole area like yours. Mine is just a subtle swale across their. I've often thought of shimming the facsia up in the center by slipping in a thin strip of wood or suitable material between the top of the impact absorber and the facsia ledge at the bottom of the license plate frame. I just have not got around to doing it yet. In theory it should level out the smile by supporting the middle of the facsia.
