    Truck and hood alignment

    One of the things on my car that bug the crap out of me are the way my truck and hood fit. The Trunk is crooked as in one side is higher than the other.



    The hood has a larger gap on one side and a smaller one on the other. How can I resolve these?

    Wow that's far off. These things can be a pain to align, but you're gonna wanna play with the screws where the trunk lid mounts onto the arms on either side. I'd loosen a couple screws, slide it a tiny bit, and repeat until it's acceptable.
    The first car I ever rode in was an e30

        Does look like they move. I see two books that go on the lid and two more down at the other end

          check your latch! also the little think that is on the trunk itself what latches to the latch....2 of the three e30s ive had had unaligned trunks it was due from opening and closing it ended it up being the latch being a little bent and the thing that mates with the latch was unaligned as well
