Ive had my P1 bumper lifted three times and the gap between the headlamps and bumper keeps opening up. I spoke to my main dealer and they said its a common problem is this true and is there a way of keeping it up tight.
Thanks Joe

Not a prob with mine but I'm slightly different 
Full P1 front on my MY99 UK Wagon & although there is a bit of a gap on n/s that is down to garage trying to pull lip off with low ramp
Mine is screwed to the front & bolted under the arches if that makes a difference...

i have had mine relifted twice,my local dealer said it is a common problem for p1s and it is due to the cheap plastic bolts used-he reckons high speed vibrations ie motorway driving cause resonance causing the bolts to shake loose
martin
prodrive were going to do new metal bolts -i assume at the same time as the ppp for the p1 never

Mine used to drop especially the front, was told by dealer that cos the bumpers are bigger-therefore heavier theres more strain on the mounts and Subaru used the same as the standard bumper models mountings.
