Headlight housing

I noticed today that there is a gap between the bottom of my headlights and bumper. I had the front end redone about 5 months ago like repainted and had everything realigned but im not sure if this is something i passed over and didnt notice. ill post some pics later too


Passenger side seemed fine the drivers side is the one that worries me

Re: Headlight housing

not sure the 6th gen, but the 7th have a metallic lip in the headlight that is supposed to have the bumper to snap-in - I know that 'cos i am missing the driver's side lip...

Re: Headlight housing

alright well what ive been reading is that there is a way to adjust the height of the bumper or headlights up or down. everything is flush on the front end of my car though the fenders hood and bumper all line up right so it doesnt make sense why the lights wouldnt be right too

Re: Headlight housing

remove the front bumper skin and check the metal brackets under the lights, sometimes it can sit kind of off if they tightened the top bolts of the lights last, making the lights sit kind of off.
