Hood Adjustment
The front section of my hood began binding against the nose of the car when opening it. It's scuffing one of the white stripes. Does anyone know a good way to make an adjustment? I think the hood needs to be moved back about an 1/8" to solve it. I'm hoping I don't need to remove the hood to do this. Thanks.

I would mark the hood where the hinges are now and then slightly loosen the bolts holding the hinges to the hood, push the hood so there is 3/16"-1/4" from the marks to the hinge, tighten the bolts and gently lower the hood to see how well it aligns. Mite take some trial and error, but not rocket science. My 2¢

I've performed hood hinge adjustments by driving the car up onto ramps. When you crawl underneath, the hinges are right there and fully accessible. Hood remains closed but not locked.

Unfortunately the is little access to the hinges from under the car with a coyote setup. There's a panel that blocks them.
