Problem with WS6 hood???? I own a 2000 red WS6. I recentally noticed while looking at the front of my car from a distance that
the driver's side front of the hood seemed to have a higher offset from the headlight cover than
the passenger side. It is very unobvious only if you know what to look for. I was wondering is
that supposed to be like that or is there something wrong. The body is perfect on the car, no
accidents or anything this is why I thought the car was just made that way. The offset when looked
at the right way, makes the driver side front headlight cover much more noticable then the
passenger side. I'm unfortunetly a perfectionist and am hopeing it's supposed to look like that,
heheh, please help me.

Re: Problem with WS6 hood???? I am not sure how to do it, but I know that there are adjustments for the headlight covers. When I had my hood put on, I came across the same problem (actually worse, my passenger light would hit the hood when it popped up). The body shop that did the install adjusted the headlight cover for me. I think there are some small screws on the sides, underneath the cover.

Re: Problem with WS6 hood???? If that doesn't do it... try lowering the rubber stops that the hood rests on when it's closed. They are usually octogon shaped and screw in/out to adjust the height of the hood when closed, one on each side toward the front of the car.
This all depends on how the hood lines up with the fenders of the car... if they are even height wise, then the problem is with the headlight cover.

Re: Problem with WS6 hood???? I had the new VFN hood put on my car and the body shop had to adjust one headlight to get everything to lineup correctly. There is an adjustment to the headlight covers.
If you want call 816-858-5503 and ask for Gary
He is a good guy and should be able to tell you how to adjust it.
