Allright, so me and my budy spent all day installing my new invader bumper and it acme out great, after making some cuts and drilling here and there. But when we got it on there is like a 1-2 inch gap between the light and the bumper. i know some people on here were saying to put washers in between the bolt to extend it but i cant find what you guys are talking about. the only bolts i see are the 2 on top right underneath the hood. but if ne one could shed some info over my way it would be greatly appreciated. also if you can extend them foward, some pics would also help too.

Thanks in advance!

Dustin

wat you need to do is go over to home depot/lowes and grab
4 x bolts
4 x washers
4 x nuts
1 x (12"x12") sheet metal plate

you will need to measure the distance you need to move forward and then cut the sheet metal plate into 4 piece of the same length and about an inch or two wide...drill one hole on each end the length you need to move forward.....stock bolt on one end then a bolt/wash/nut on the headlight end...and wala you've moved forward...

for the bottom bolt you will need the exact same thread size but how ever much you need to move LONGER....once you get the longer bolt you just stack washers behind and you should be fine

hopefully that wasn't too confusing

When I did my project using the invader top half, I had the same problem. I just cut some fiberglass strips and extended the the lip to the headlights.
