front bumper fitment??

I'm trying to figure out how to get rid of the gap between the bottom of my headlights and the bumper... I didnt notice the gap until I got my oem fogs installed at my dealership... Any input would help a bunch! Thanx in advance

if it is bigger than it used to be the dealer most likely didn't install all the clips back correctly. I would take your car to the dealer and compare it with another one. If there is a big difference then you could complain about it. If not, they will just tell you it is normal and there would be nothing that they could do for you about it.

We'll I work there and they give me more b.s. than a normal customer would get. I looked at a few si coupes on the lot and the only ones with the gap have foglights.. I'm gonna see if I can fix it myself, any suggestions?
