Default How to adjust headlight bracket?

My headlights have a big gap between the bumper and headlight. I'd sat close to a 1/4 inch. Both sides are like this. Is this the norm for a Z/28? Or is there a way to adjust the bracket the headlights connect to? Any help or tips would be great. Thanks.
They are stock lights btw.

so are they extremely close, if not tucked under, the hood? Sounds to me like it might not be the lights, but the front clip might be hanging low. Pics?

its fairly normal, some have a bigger gap, some smaller. there are 2 screws to adjust the lights. you can screw them in to where the lights will sit more flush with the bumper, BUT the more you push them forward, the more they point toward the ground.

i'd say to pull up to a wall or garage with the car sitting even, and turn on your lights and pop the hood. that way you can try to adjust them to where they look better to you, and still make sure they aren't too high or low. it takes some time to work with them to get it how you like
