    Hood Alignment

    The hood on my Vcross is about 1/4 inch below the top of my fenders in the front. Do any of you have this alignment problem and how can it be fixed?

    There are two round pieces of rubber that the hood rests on when closed. You can adjust these so that they sit 1/4 inch higher and it may fix your problem.
    I don't remember how to adjust them (twist maybe?), but I remember some people adjusting them to stop the hood from squeeking.

    The two black robber pads screw up and down for proper alignment. Should take all of 30 seconds

    Check your latch while doing this. It can be adjusted also and if it is too low all you will do is tweak the corners of the hood up and leave the center dipped down.

    Thanks for the hood aligment info

    I was able to adjust the front hood bimmpers
    by turn them in the right direction. There is still some miss aligntment med way up the fender and hood this is not severe but I think the fit an finish could be better.
