I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess that separation is from someone giving you a little love-tap while parallel parking.

from what i think it is the double sided sticky tape and water gettin into the gap and making it not stick. im gonna take it off and use 3m automotive tape and see if this helps...im waitin for my side skirts to fall off now since that seems to be a common problem wit the aero package....shoulda saved my money lol.

Any Body Shop should be able to fix that easily.
