Have a look at your wire.Right where you market the "trouble spot" there is a tiny triangle that might just be causing that error.

Hehe Jintonic

Anyways, about that problem.. You might lift up the marked verts a bit

As for accuracy:
-sharp edge on those "strips" missing
-sharp edge above the lights should be smoother
-sharp edge running beneath the lights should stop between the lights and grill, and go back to beneath the grill.
-sharp edge around the grill could use some work too
-indent in the side of the bumper is a bit off

That's about what I can see
