|  Adjusting Fender
My fiberglass ws6 hood rises up slightly on the pass. side front corner, so is there a way to adjust the fender or bumper to sit higher up?

tried that, problem is the actual hood is slightly higher on one side, either that or the fender and bumper are sagging (had the same problem on my stock hood). I already messed with all the hood adjustments, But do you think its possible to raise the fender?

| sag
I'm not a body man but have been messing Rigging) around w/ cars for a while.
1.I would say the fender should'nt be raised because of the crease in fender lining up w/ crease in door.
2. most of these cheesie GM TA bumper will sag mainly because there's really no surport just 2 crappie little plastic pins.
I'm in the process of trying a few things to strengthen the mounting point of the fender and bumper w/ extra rivots and maybe add a metal plate on over side of bumper.
in this thread can the fenders be bolted to the bumper then mounted
hopefully one of the experts members will chime in w/ advice.
lastly maybe you should contact SRJ he's famous in you're area | |

I had a similar issue and all i did was.
1. loosen all the bolts along the top of the fender (5)
2. loosen the bolt at the top rear side of the fender by the windshield.
3. with the wheel well plastic removed loosen the middle bracket (basically behind the side vents)
4. then at the front where the fender bolts to the bumper there shouls be to more bolts on a metal bracket loosen those and adjust and re tighten.
sound like you just need to push the front end of the fender down. I had to raise mine a bit.. then again i have ocd with stuff like that.
