Smile Tighten front bumper 02 tl

I removed the front bumper on my 2002 acura tl to replace the headlights. I put it back on but is doesn't seem as flush to the body of the car as I would like. Possibly I reinstalled it improperly.

Anybody have any recommendations, videos, pictures on how to fix this issue? Any advice on where I can find the necessary parts to do this?

Tay,

There are little hinges below the Headlight where you must push the bumper into place before securing the bolts in the fenders..
Check that you aligned the bumper with those hinges in the headlight it makes all the difference with the flush situation.
