I was taking off my front bumper to get the condensation out of my left headlight, and i did everything just fine. Put the headlight back, and put the bumper back. But one bolt just did not want to go in. It was on the drivers side of the vehicle, and it was the 8mm bolt in the wheel well that connects to the bumper. It would go in just fine, but it has nothing to catch to...What do i need to go buy from Honda to fix that, because now one side of my bumper is flimsy and is not on right...please help!

The Helm manual doesn't show exactly what it is that screw threads into but I'm guessing it is some sort of "pinch clip" that has a threaded hole to match the screw. You have simple pushed it out of position and it's still there. Shine a light up there to see if that is what happened. It may be just situated off to one side.

There is a small plastic "Nut" that fits into the fender that the screw, screws into. It costs about $3.00.
How do I know this? I lost one and had to buy a replacement. Turns out that it was inside the fender, justa about where the AEM CAI draws from. So I now have a spare.

I have been having the same problem on the passenger side. My bumper stays in position when not messed with, but moves around too easily. The hole just seems like it is too large for some reason. I will try doing what xviper said.
