When I got the car back from paint, all of the panels were lined up and looking great. As I was adjusting the door glass on the driver's side, after closing the door a few times, the door started to hit on the fender at the body line. I was able to adjust the door at the hinge inward to get it to clear, but that has screwed up the body line with the fender. I know you really need to pull the fender to correctly adjust the doors, and I really don't want to do that. After that I noticed that the hood seemingly shifted from the DS to the PS. It seems to be slightly cocked towards the PS and the lines are very tight on the PS and very wide on the DS. I have done absolutely zero wrenching on any of the body lines. So a few questions:
1. What gives? I've never had a car that just all of a sudden was losing it's body lines. I checked all of the bolts and they all were tight, so it wasn't just an issue of the painter leaving the car loosely fit.
2. Is there any adjustment fore and aft on the fender, or am I limited to just moving the door fore and aft?
3. Is there a side-to-side adjustment for the hood? Or is this a hood hinges taking a crap on me issue?
As always, ya'lls input is always greatly appreciated!
