Front bumper gap ajustment

Post by Brooner » Sat Apr 12, 2014 9:52 am

Hi been looking to adjust the gap between the bonnet and the bumper it was an easy fix on the B7 as you could access the adjusters without taking off the bumper i took off the trim at the front of the engine bay hoping to see the same bolts but i cant see anything obvious anyone done this and has some picks to point me in the right direction

the gaps not bad just would like it to be the same width as the other panel gaps

It was pretty big on my b8 too, but seems consistent with all the others I've seen
Still, it's half the size of the gap on my b7, that was huge
