Dec '22 Proto hood paint damage

[MCN1SMO]

Big difference, hood has been lifted to match the height of the pillars. Hood easily clears the pillars when opened now.

I asked my dealer and they said it needed to go to the bodyshop. that doesnt sound right was yours a quick adjustment or was is a big ordeal like removing the hood ect?

Mine was also sent to the local paint/body shop and they were confident they could fix the issue when I presented the car to them. Was a few hour fix along with some touch up paint.

@MCN1SMO, did/are you having yours adjusted? My Dec 22 build still hasn't seen this issue.

Not a great photo but tried to match the damaged picture on top. Hood is higher and is forward slightly.

eventually but I mean mine only has the issue after the hood really heats up. I literally just went out in the garage and opened it 3 times and no rubbing at all. after fooling with the bodyshop over that sideskirt replacement im just not in hurry to go through all that again at the moment. I thought this was just something the dealer could tweak during my first oil change.

Noticable difference.
