GFX/Ground effects not line up right how to fix?

Hey everyone I need help....I recently bought my 91 camaro rs and at the time I was buying it I didnt really notice but the gfx weren't line up right with the doors and the front ...yeah really dumb of me but I was really excited at the time and really was caught up on how it drove... and one thing I notice that it was jacked up wrong by the door and was wondering if that caused it, but that dont explain the front.I have pics on how it looks car is kinda dirty was working on it and needs paint.. what could have caused this? Please help me on how to fix this problem to make it look nice and straight.

Probably needs new hinge pins. Top photo, looks like the front of the GFX may not be all the way in the mounting bracket on the front fender. Bottom picture...may be missing bolts,connecting GFX to front fascia.

Re: GFX/Ground effects not line up right how to fix?

looks like in the top picture that the speed nuts need to be tightened some(or the stud could be broken, fender bow, etc.) and thats why its pulled away from the body, same with the chin spoiler

other than that, the part of the GFX that mounts to the door, im not sure if its suppose to line up perfectly like the 90 and before cars that had the flat GFX, maybe someone who has a 91-92 gfx car can give insight on what theirs look like from that angle
