Does a rear bumper for a 95 fit on a 96? I was basically given a body kit rear bumper and it don't seem to fit right
No I don't know what kind it is

Post a picture of it. It's aftermarket bumper cover (fiberglass I presume) so I would be surprised if it just bolted right up on the car without any work needed.

Ok i just have to figure out how to post it thru my iPhone
But more or less where the trunk closes u can definitely see where the bumper ends

This is why companies that produce these kits strongly suggest professional installation. You probably have to modify things a bit to get that bumper to fit properly. See what you can do to get that puppy raised up. Be creative, I used a plastic bread board cut into strips to shim and straighten up the bumper on my 96.

I bet it fits just fine. You have something misaligned. I've seen some really poor quality body kits but I've never seen one that far out of alignment. I had my bumper off several times this summer and it can be a bit of a whoooer to get it all lined up.

Take it off and have a carefull look for where it's hung up. It's definitely not on there right.
