TrailerTrash wrote:very simple fix.
take the nut off the wiper arm, remove the arm, reposition it a few splines up, and reinstall the nut.

can you take a picture from further back so we can see how the wipers sit on the window with the hood closed... you should never need to put spacers if everything is installed properly and the hood isn't damaged

you may be moving them too many splines or the wiper blades may be the wrong size. could be the reason they go too far

They may be the wrong arms but I have the Haynes manual and put the size wipers they say to put on.

if the arms are right, like all the rest of us, they clear our hood. so like i said the top edge of the hood is bent or the arms are the wrong ones.
