Headlight Gaskets???????????? Has anyone has an issue with the rubber gasket around the headlight assembly not fitting flush against the bumper cover? Mine seems to be pushed in (you can see a gap between the headlight and the bumper cover which the gasket should cover up. Never been in an accident. Wondering if anyone has a fix for this? This is killing me!!

if youre really wanting to seal it up, get some weather stripping adhesive in black and put it around the inside and put the headlight back on. that will make it look like the gasket and seal it

someone have a better idea than glopping silicone behind the gasket to push the gasket closer to the bumper?? looks like gasket needs to move about 1-2 inches to get it to sit against bumper. someone help this perfectionist maniac please.
