Bumper Cover adjustment.

Post by gold_xero »

I have a bumper cover that isn't lining up with the hoods center body line. I was wondering if I have to adjust the header panel to adjust this.

Sounds like something underneath is bent, or your hood is mis-aligned. The header panel has nothing to do with the bumper fitment.

Okay see what is bent. My hood can't be adjusted any more to the drivers side. The body line is off about 1/4 inch
