installed LICP, now front bumper wont go on...pics.

hey guys just got installing my green/fmic/ams motor mount/injectors.

got everything back together and went to put the bumper on, it fit fine uptop and on along the right fender (when looking at the car from the front). However i couldnt get it to fit right on the left fender, i then realized that the LICP/FMIC were not giving the bumper enough clearance on that side. I adjusted the FMIC and got it to move back a bit, but its not the problem, the LICP just juts out to far. it was getting late so i stopped for right now. driving w/o the front bumper .. i attached a couple of pics... any suggestions on how to get more clearance?

TIA.

The infamous front bumper install. It's the biggest PINTA. You can do it with just yourself, but help from a buddy makes it much easier. You cannot install one part at a time. It has to slide straight on underneath the two front headlights. I've took it off twice now and won't do it again until I upgrade my FMIC/UICP. Good luck soldier.

FYI- I recommend replacing those worm clamps with t-bolt clamps now while you have the front bumper off. I had to take my front bumper off the second time to replace them for always blowing off under high boost.

so just force it? ill have a small bulge over the licp...i have been installing it straight on, evenly so that it goes on evenly below the headlights...

LICP pipe side doesnt meet up with the fender unless i sort of force it and pull it back where as the UICP pipe sits right where its supposed to on it its own...
