Underneath the front headlights on both ends of my car there is a small gap between the bottom of the headlight and the area of the front of the car (front bumper.) Is this small gap normal?

I have not had any accident. I had the bumper removed (I think) when it was painted. The gap is very small. I simply never noticed it before. People tend to look closer after work is done. I guess it is alright then, correct? I mean the gap is very small. So no worries?

As long as they snapped the bumper back correctly and there was no damage then it would likely be normal, yes? As you said the small gap is normal on all such cars, yes?
