Is this gap between the bumper and head light normal?
you should adjust your headlight. do the bottom adjustment first to bring the bottom of the light in more then adjust the top to bring the top in more to even it out and so your lights face properly.

If you take the bumper back off you will see two metal tabs under the headlights....its metal tab, body colored, sticks out a little. Try bending this upwards so that it supports the bumper when it rests on top of this little tab piece.
Also check to see if your pipes from intercooler and that they are not resting on the bumper causing the bumper to hang.
If this doesnt work, I have used some race wire tie to add additional support.

i say the gap is NOT normal, and it can be fixed. mine was not like that before.

I have an even worse gap on my passenger side. I bought another OEM bumper off a different Evo (came with Varis lip, canards, brake ducts, etc.). Has anyone successfully found the cause for this? It was missing the foam blocks, maybe that is the reason?
