Okay....were you using OEM pieces when you did all this? OEM bumper? OEM headlights? It's obviously not an OEM CTR grille, so that might be why there are gaps there.
Anyway, did you make sure the bumper had ALL of it's bolts/screws put back in? There are some that you have to reach from under the fender, that many people forget. If you don't have OEM headlights/bumpers then gaps are something you may have to deal with.
Do you have pictures?

Just because an aftermarket company sells an item, it doesn't mean that item is a non-fitting piece of ****...

your bumper support brackets may be sagging like mine were, remove the front bumper, look under your headlight at the supports for the bumper and push like hell to push them up higher.
