Tried wrestling with these clips ? Bumper removal shows... and on top of that I install Hella Supertones... unless I say I did so removing the under panels...

dam i installed my oil cooler today, NOW my bumper sags, this sucks i can totally tell , and i reinstalled it very well. noticable gap now, i spent about 2hrs trying to find a way, i think i found something.... the issue is the clips under the headlights, if you remove the headlighs and cut shims that you could slide in between the "hook" of the clips and where they grab under the lights .. the bumper plastic is cheap and they actually use the plastic to hold the bumper up instead of using screws or metal clips they use the actual bumper plastic just cut locking tabs into it which is pathetic . if that doesnt work im gonna drill a small hole, insert a steel eyelet and use a spring to keep it pulled back , all that will be done under the headlight, im not bringint it to the dealer they never have impressed me with warranty work before so idoubt they will any time soon.

Here is what @digital_assassin did which I think would almost look better than the sags...

On a side note I found this TSB (US of course) but I'll try my luck to prove them it's not just me who's having the issue..
