Simply take a dremel, or a file even (depending) and get it flush with the bumper. Then it wont be pushing up on the light, and there will be no gap. It's a 5 second modification. Jeesh...
Nah. I believe in reversible mods. Everything I have done to my car is reversible. So, Mike if you can, please provide a pic.
Thanks!

If you have ever had the bumper off you'll see that there is an alignment tab for the stock headlamp assembly. It is redundant because the screw holes are what align the lamp. Anyway, it is nothing to remove it, won't affect the bumper integrity in any way, doesn't have any clearcoat paint on it or shouldn't and won't affect either light system in any case.
Don't worry about it.

I later found that out. I don't mind cutting a small tab. But like I said, had we needed to chop away a portion of the bumper cover itself, I'd be out. With the cost of a front bumper, I wouldn't do it. I also like reversable mods. Thank God we don't have to worry about it though!

Hmmm, Morettes!!  If the fit and finish is anything like this, I'd have to do it. It should, from all the measuring it seemed they were doing. BTW, picture from chillduke's post.
