Yes, I had the same issue with one side.  Before you tighten all the main
bolts back up, make sure the clips are locked in, as much as you would think
with the flex in the bumper cover it will work... well I learned as well,
they don't always align properly.

Mine popped about 2-3 days after replacing the radiator, I would pop it back
in, and same thing, 2-3 days every time...so loosened everything up, popped
it in... tug on it a tad....then snugged it all back up.  Seemed to hold, 2
months later someone pulled out in front of me, and didn't matter after
that...

Could be that the other attachment points may not be properly aligned,
distorting the ends of the cover and causing them to not properly engage the
clips.

Does anyone have any tips for getting the sides of the front bumper 
re-installed correctly?  I did some work on my headlight washers and I 
can't seem to get the bumper to re-attach at the sides.  When I first put 
it on everything looks good but after taking it for a ride the sides look 
disconnected and jutting out slightly from the fender line.  Is there a 
trick to it? 

Thanx!
