DONT buy cheap slam panels. they are utter shite and are really flimsy and probably a worse fit than the current one.

To me it looks like the slam pannel has been bent slightly and pushed down so because the bonnet catch hole is lower down that might be the reason for the bonnet sitting lower.

If i got a new one

How hard is it to get old one off and fit this one is it DIY possble.

Cheers dave, my bonnet doesnt have those black adjusting blocks as ive already checked, i'll try adjusting it at the back see if that helps, if not i think ill have to take a trip to a local garage.

adjust the bonnet at the rear fixing point. holes are elongated to allow adjustment.

also under the bonnet are little black blocks which can be unscrewed to raise the height of the bonnet. try that first.

Basicly i had a small bump a cuple of months back and since then my bonnet does not sit properly, also it looks like my drivers side wing is out a bit.

Looks like this atm



With the wing out like this



Buttt when the bonnet catch is released and the bonnet sits slightly higher it looks fine :boggle:

This is the front end pik



I think the slam pannel might be bent im not totaly sure, any thoughts
