Hood issue

This is certainly a case of me being a complete dumbass I'm sure but I'm frustrated and annoyed. So my hood dips down in the front center below the front (lip?) I had removed the radiator cover plate thingy to access the front bowtie for removal and when I put everything back together I noticed it. I don't know what the heck I did but if anyone has any idea I'd appreciate any help you can give.

Did you mess with any of the rubber bumper things? They are also the height adjustments for the front of your hood.

Yep I had to remove two of them in the process but I've adjusted them like a hundred times and they don't seem to be making much of a difference no matter what I do. The two outside bumpers make a difference but not the two inside that I had to remove.

I think it takes quite a few turns to make much difference. Run them all the way out and see if its too high, then if it is start by turn I gthem a half turn at a time.

I didn't take it off but I was wondering if I bumped it down somehow in my struggle to take the plate off and put it back on. How do you adjust it?

Thanks so much guys.

Got it figured out. There's another forum on here that explained it. There are two torx head screws that adjust the height of the facia that lines up with the hood. Pretty simple fix.

Was just going to say this. I turned one of those screws once
and it changed the height.
