Is this gap between the bumper and head light normal?

There is a tab sticking out on the bottom of the headlights that slots into the bumper and holds it (fairly) snugly. It's still not seamless as lots of stock Evos have this gap, as you can tell.

you are the second one who told me it has to do with the tabs underneath the headlight, I will look into that thanks you for your support.

anyone else has the solution to this problem?

I got rid of my gap by removing the crash beam. For some reason it was pushing the bumper down lower making the gap larger.

thanks for the reply, but I think the crash beam has nothing to do with the gap, b/c evo came with crash beam from the factory and stock bumper fit nicely.

can anyone please tell me how you get rid of the gap between headlights and bumper?
