I was looking at my front end the other day, and I noticed a gap between the hood and the bumper. I installed my 05 headlights months ago, but I just never really noticed this gap until now. I'm thinking maybe I did something to cause this gap, But maybe it's normal? I'm not sure, what do you guys think?

I know there is A gap..but I just wanted to make sure it wasn't bigger than normal

I don't know...on the driver's side it looks like the gap is a lot larger than normal. That would have led me to believe that the hood adjustment/leveler knob inside needed to be adjusted. But yet the edge of the hood lines up nicely with the edge of the fender. So now it's leading me to believe that there might be an issue with the driver's headlight maybe being a bit off.

yeah... that gap on the right isn't natural looking... do you have any "before" pics so we can compare if the hood was that way to begin with? at least that way we can narrow down to whether or not the light is aligned properly. if not, then its probably something with the hood.

Open hood, loosen left headlight bolts, jiggle headlight, tighten bolts, close hood.

Left side is definitely off. Looks like the left side of your bumper isn't properly aligned either, this may be causing the problem. Check in particular the long metal clip that holds the bumper to the fender.

hmm now that you mention the bumper...I did have a hell of a time getting that side back on when I replaced my headlights. I probably spent 45 minutes trying to get it back on...just wouldn't fit properly. I'll check that out some more tomorrow and let you guys know.
