Hi,
I've a '15 Mustang Ecoboost. Liking the car, but...
I have noticed that the right-side (passenger side) hood hinge appears to be set a bit high. It needs to be lowered to match the lines of the car. How do I go about doing this? NOT the front hood rubber adjusters, but the rear hinge.
Thanks in advance,
Jim

Take it to the dealership, it is a warranty item unless you're out on mileage.

Yeah, you're right. Just figured I could adjust it.

They make new pistons every day, so why worry?

^^ This exactly, I wouldn't mess with the hinges or any body panel on a new car.
