Had the front bumper and some other stuff replaced due to an accident and the shop did a crappy job of getting the fenders flush with the headlights and huge gaps with the bumper to the fender.

I know from a lot of research there are tabs that the headlights need to slide into the fender in order to make it flush, but I cannot find a picture of where on the FENDER they slide into. I have pictures for everything else.

Does anyone have a pic of the inside fender where the tabs slide into so I can show the shop and they can do it right?

I tried to find a DIY instruction on this site but also came up with nothing (sometimes someone posts pic by pic instructions of getting everything aligned right, but I can't find it)

 

I am not sure but I think that this is what you are looking for.
It is from "Rick'smSignture Accessories" web site. I this wath you want might be on page "5"
Follow that link below and let me know if this is waht you want, other wise I can check my shop manual.
PM me you you wish

I do have this document and it is very good, however it doesn't show the actual tabs, just the location. I also have a diagram of the headlights that show the tabs, but I'd like a pic of the tabs on the fenders to show the shop...

 

I had my front end off the other day for some work I was doing to my front bumper and there are no actual tab on the plastic part of the fender.
Rather there are slots the the tabs show in the link fit into, they are kind of hard to miss when the front end is off.
I checked my S2000 shop manual and they call the tabs (hooks),but they do not show the slots the the tabs fit into.
Sorry I could not be of more help.

 

you shouldn't have paid the shop until they did it right

 

You're lucky that my fenders are off the car getting sprayed and my original fenders are mounted on my garage wall, so I took picture of both for you.



The "hook" on top of the headlight points up and towards the back of the car. To get fenders flush with headlights you'll need to completely take off the fender and put them back on starting with the headlight hook first then make sure other holes line up.

To make things easier, open doors slightly and put 2-3 layers of masking tape wrapped around the edge here to protect paint.

 

You f'ing rock!!!
