Got it fixed. Turns out to be both the bumper and tail light. I undid all the bolts via the DIY ulrichd provided and found that the bumper had movement from left to right all the way across the car. I then checked the curve fit between wheel arch and the bumper and found it different on each side of the car. One was too far forward and one was too far back, so I moved it left and made a small curve template so each side would follow the exact curve of the wheel arch correctly. The space between the bottom of the tail light I was able to adjust by removing the tail light and refitting correctly. You can see from the photos now the gap at the base of the boot lid is now even on both sides and the right tail light sits correctly. Thanks for all your help ulrichd.
