    Hood Adjustment?

    So, since I bought the E30 the hood has been adjusted incorrectly in the front. I feel it's time to give it some attention, especially because it shouldn't be a hard fix.

    The problem is the front of the hood sits too low. See picture. Anyone know how to adjust it? I searched and came up with nothing.

    Different strokes for different folks.

    When you take the hood on and off one bolt on each side just slides in from the top. Take the other 4 bolts out, loosen the two sliding ones, and adjust it to where you want it. Holes for the other ones should have enough room that you can still get them to line up (I think)

      Sweet, thanks for the advice. I'm figuring if I look at how it's mounted long enough I should be able to get a good idea of how it's adjusted.

        If its just the front by the grills then "unscrew" the adjusting rubber plugs on the core support. This will allow it to sit higher unless youve got them all the way up.
