if you remove that pinstripe it'll fix itself

there is a clip that is about 8-9 inches long that runs along the fender. More than likely it is broken and needs to be replaced. It's around 20 dollars and the bumper will need to be moved slightly forward to take it off. Easy way is to loosen it by the tail-light and the wheel arch on that side and pull it back slightly.

^Lol! they're talking about that pinstripe on his car above side markers that runs all the way across his car like side moldings. It's not the pinstripe, they're just being sarcastic and it just the broken clips that not clipping to hold the rear bumper in place.
