When i bought my gs400 last september i didnt notice till a little while ago, but i can fit my whole index finger down into the top of my bumper on the passenger side headlight, theres like a half inch gap, my drivers side under that headlight is flush.. Any advice?

 

If you were missing a bumper bolt or they were loose, the bumper would be separated from the fender.

 

i snapped a pic

 

That doesn't look like its from a missing bumper bolt. thomasgs4 is right it would be loose were it meets the fender. If you haven't owned the car since new maybe had a fender bender leading to a broken tab on the headlight itself or a ill fitting aftermarket bumper.

 

Yep the previous owner did have a fender bender, thank you to the both of u..

 

mines kind of the same thing (gap between headlight and bumper) on 1 side.

its prob a aftermarket bumper, or aftermarket headlight

 

Yep thats what im starting to think it is an aftermarket bumper, my lights match and have the levels for the auto-level.... Oh well guess ill just roll with it...

 

If you want ill Snap a picture of how it looks when I get back to my car

I would try taking of and putting the bumper back on (I did this when installing my lip). The gap got a little smaller.

 

I thought about that, cause it needs painted anyway, im so not trying to take it off though, lol.

 

mine too has a gap, when i went to pick it up they told me it was in a small bender fender

 

^ mine looks similiar to that (the gap) everything else is fine

 

For all you guys with this gap after a little fender bender either a tab is broken on the headlight not letting it sit in the correct location. Or the radiator support can be pushed back slightly not letting the headlight sit flush with the bumper.

 

This def sucks, wish i knew a diy fix for us..

 

Buy a Lexus bumper, paint it and put it on the car. If its the position off the light brake off glued tab reposition reglue tab

 

Im not gonna just go and buy a brand new bumper, what tab? Whats it look like? And where does it go? Lol like im trying to say, me and a few others in here have no clue what the deal is and was hoping for a quick fix with info from previous owners who have encountered this problem, looks like im not alone though...
