    Front Bumper gap, need advice

    Ok, so i noticed a while ago a gap between my bumper and lights/grill. Its way too much gap to be normal, and the bumper feels loose when u apply some pressure onto it. I just need some info/advice on how to fix this myself. I havent taken the bumper off, so i dont know how bad it is; My brother ran it onto a sawn off pole, after coming off a curb in a parking lot last year. It fucked it up from underneath but nothing visible until you get on ur hands and knees. Lucky no other damage I've been driving it like that for ages since its hard to notice unless you point it out, but now i really want it fixed since i'm going to start spending money on exterior, and suspension.

    im not sure if you noticed this or if you have tried it..
    on the bumper support theres a lil lip and you just have to get it over that, then slide on back
    and you should be set

      your bumper support is bent, you have to take off bumper cover, than theres the actual bumper its fiberglass,has 4 hex circle bolts holding it on, take those off and bend the bent one up more. what happnes is if you hit something the bumper support bends down, happend to me and i took my bumper off and bent the support up and it work mint, you just have to bang it with a hammer a bit and work it into place.

        I kid you not, I had the same exact problem. Listen to 91accord4door, he's 100% right, that's exactly what I did, and it looked good as new after.

          Cool, thanks for the help. I'll get the thing off when i buy a 5th gen lip. It should be a bit easier to fit/cut when i have the bumper off. I've got a week off uni after next week so i have time for a few diy jobs. Thanks again
