There is a gap in above the rear bumper of my 94 Accord, i'm guessing it is a bit loose, but i'm not really sure.

Is it just a matter of tightening the screws? Also, i'm pretty certain the car hasnt been in a crash, so it hasn't been bent into its place.

I think that is a pretty common problem. My bumper has a gap on the one side as well. I've seen countless 5th gen accords with the same problem.

In addition to bolts/screws I think the bumper is positioned in place by some metal tabs. Usually the area with the gap has slipped off the metal tab. I was told by honda that you would have to loosen the bumper, place it back on the tab, then tighten.

Here's a breakdown of the bumper parts (it's a crap pic though).
