Both my front and rear trunk lids don't fit flush with the fenders (they sit about a 1/4 in. high) so I was wondering how can I adjust them so they fit as good as on Trevorg7's car?

if you can supply any photos here then i can walk you thru . depending on how bad the gaps are the front hood has alot of adjustments up and down, also can adjust the cowl panel, the rear has no real adjustment down other thank tweaking a little here and there, there was someone ont this site selling an adustable rear hinge piviot that looks really cool, another thing that i have found out that the aftermarket seals do not have the same tolorances that the factory has ,and noticed that the rear aftermarket seal tends to make the deck lid sit high, you can adjust the rear lock lower but the seal prevents it from latching, sometimes it is easier to remove the hood our trunk latch and see how it shuts, this will rule out the latch bing the problem, remember anything can be made to fit better , sometimes its easy and sometimes its not ,, hope this helps,,steve
