I wonder if this happens more to the happy bumper than the angry one.

I already knew about this issue the first time I removed my FRS bumper. I played with the headlight assemblies, loosening them to see if I could wiggle them forward in their mount points. I think I may have been a little successful but am not sure.

After I clipped it in, I added only a couple fasteners to loosely hang the bumper from the top.

Then, as I played with the bumper, holding it from the bottom center, I noticed it tends to hang away from those tabs. I also noticed pushing it up and rearward, like a splitter support would, the bumper actually seated itself into the side clips.

I did my best to tighten the fasteners while holding that position but again, I'm not sure it really helped. Although my bumper stays in place, I think it could benefit from a couple little cable supports or spokes pulling the bottom up into the bumper beam.
