    Headlight question

    I noticed on my Camaro, that there is a small gap along the bottom of the headlight where it meets the front bumper. Is this normal or has someone taken the headlight out, at some point, but not re-seated it correctly?


    Thanks all

    Mike.

    It could be the whole headlight assembly bracket is off, the bumper or the headlight cover. Is the headlight cover even with the hood?

    I don't think so, but I'll double check to be certain.

    Is it possible (standard or aftermarket) that they could be installed wrong? I've had a good look at them and it looks like they can only be fitted by sliding them directly onto the two tabs and then the bolt to secure it.

    My original ones fit pefrectly. The halos have that gap you are talking about if I get the to where there is no gap, my lights shine more on my bumper than the road. It either wont line up or takes a tremendous amount of tweaking.
