are any of the bolts or screws loose after you put them on? another words do they keep spinning when fully tightened, if so get bigger screws and bolts but only by one size, you go to big you'll have even more probs, another solution is to use foam in certain areas also if they wont tighten, cut pieces and wedge them for a tighter fit.

did you put the support foam back on behind the bumpers? and are these stock bumpers or aftermarket junk? if its aftermarket dont expect it to just bolt up and look like oem fitment..

Make sure your bumper bar is tightened all the way up.

The front steel bar he's talking about, 4 bolts mount up under it on the front bumper.
