Installed ams licp and front mount, bumper will not go on with crash bar on

Just like the title says, I installed the LICP and the Street FMIC. I got the crash bar on without any problems but the bumper would not lock in on the passenger side, Driver side fit fine. When I took the crash bar off the bumper fit fine on both sides. Very frustrated...any suggestions??? I know both should be able to fit without any problems.


Also...

I want the Arc Ti Shift knob but I am getting mixed reviews on weather or not it will fit the MR models. I have physically seen this knob on an MR but websites specifically say (will not fit MR models). Any advice would be greatly appriceated.

There are two foam pads inside the bumper cover. It's possible one moved out of place causing a clearance issue.

Also, just check the Intercooler couplings are facing inward and not forward as they might hit the bottom of the bumper and stop it from being flush.

None of the piping or couplings are touching the bar. I can run my hand along it without any problems.

I would leave the pads in there. Just check to see if the both look like they are in the same place.
