Default Bumper falling off
Since my car is lowered, I have a problem where this metal tab keeps on rubbing to the point where the bumper sort of want to disattach itself. Here are some photos.. I'm hoping a few people might have experience this to give me some tips on how to fix this.

Where did you end up redrilling? The original hole where the screw goes in works perfectly fine. But the clips that the bumper attach is feels loose.
