Sorry guys but i really need some advice!!

Just realised my bonnet is not sitting straight when its closed.
appears the right front just above the headlight is sticking like half a cm up.

When I apply pressure to push it down seems the left sticks up.

Would anyone know why this has happened?

AND WHAT I CAN DO TO GET IT STRAIGHT?

On your radiator support, there should be 2 rubber pieces that look like a tower one on each side.
Twist them up to raise and down to drop and make sure the level is even.
Then adjust to suit ur viewing.

Hey thanks for the tip John.

When I got home from work I had a look at those rubber mounts and they appear to be straight.
I poped the bonnet and this is what it looked like so i doubt it had anything to do with the rubber mounts.
On a closer look

So I thought what the heck!!! I lifted the bonnet up and held the left side of bonnet and asked my gf to push down on right side.

ANd here is the end result after i closed the bonnet!!

Not too bad eh!!
Now it sits perfectly and air tight!!:thumbsup:

My conclusion is bonnet prob got bent when it was leaning on the stick that holds it up
