Looking at the photos it seems the indicators are in line with the wings, which looks right. It could be the headlight itself that is out. Maybe the beam adjuster on the nearside headlight needs a look at?

I'd try adjusting the headlight as that may help. From looking at the seam where the wing joins the front panel it looks like the car has had a wing fitted at some point. Maybe not 100% aligned. Failing the adjustment some shaping of the headlight braket and spacers on the indicator mounting may be able to give a better look?

I would just hit it with a big hammer pmsl.......as other's have said try adjusting the head light over. Not only that you got after market indicator's you numb nut.

Did you use the bracket's which come with indicator's? My clear indicator's came with a bracket and the bracket was crap fitting it pushed the indicator out.
