Could someone tell me how could I adjust the front bumper gap as shown in the picture:



Is it an easy DIY?

Thanks.

 

That's easy to fix. Just loosen the bolts holding the fender at the top and pull the fender out away from the headlight. There should be a C shaped plastic clip holding the fender to the bumper. If the clip is not it place correctly, there will be a gap at the front. Just make sure the clip is there holding the fender against the bumper.

 

Are you saying removing the push pins behind fender? Is this the same procedures asremoving the plastic fender for replacing the fog bulbs?

I read the other threads regarding replacing the front bumper, there is a long clip tightened by a torx screw (or whatever screw). If I removed this c-clip, will the left hand side bumper lose freely in order for me to push in or out for the bumper alignment?

If this is the case, I will try this weekend.

Thanks.

 

I have the same issue il be fixing mine tomorrow.

 

Any updates on this?

 

Hey guys,

It works. There is a metal clip behind the gap. All you need is turn the wheel either all the way to the left of right (depends which side is the bumper gap). Remove those plastic push pins and bolts from the fender liners so that you can pull the fender liner out and have a flash light to find out where is the metal clip. The metal clip is fastened with a metal screw. Unlock this screw so that loosen that metal clip.

After you loosened the metal clip, now you can adjust the bumper gap. Once, it is aligned, push the metal clip to lock it in position and secure with the metal screw. Double check the gap again before you re-intall plastic liner and plastic push pins and bolts.

Hope this help!

 

Fixed.
