Gaps between headlight and bumper

alanluong · 03-29-2008, 12:41 AM

Hey guys
Earlier this week I got my fogs installed on my civic at a shop, I was kinda in a rush that day they were installing them and did not really inspect the car throughly when they were done, and today I was checking it out and found that there is a gap between the headlights and the bumper itself..
I was wondering if anyone can help me re-align the bumper with the headlights to fix that gap. Thanks in advance!

you dont need to realign the bumper, just tap it in the area with the gap with a little bit of force until you hear it snap.

Darna, I just tried pushing the bumper in, but i'm not hearing any snap noises, and the gap is still there.. lol

how big is the gap? I notice that there's a small gap normally like enough to fit a dime in between but if its bigger than that, there might be something wrong.
