Just recently i realized the drivers side of my trunk lid is alittle high.

i tried taking the trunk off and bending the hinge and that didnt work
might have been to gentle with it :cry:
any ideas?

or reasons it ended up that way cause it hasnt always been like that :?

someone suggested i may have closed it and the hinge hit.

seems likely

could it be due to something in your trun hitting the hinge? fold your rear seat down and take a gander when its closed maybe you maysee something then.....

instead of useing an element like carbon fiber ima use just a plain O2 trunk.

may have a water issue
:wink:


yes I checked the rubber and that didnt seem to be the problem unfortunantly.

and i shall give it a shot and puttin the seat down and taking a look

ill get back to you after

there's crossabars underneath connecting the two hinges to my the trunk lid lift open when you push it up

in auto collsion we had a car that had this problem and it turned out to be one of those bar was kinked from someone putting huge things in their trunk (perhaps a bike :hehe: ) lol jking but seriously the bar was kinked and it pushed the trunk open a little on one side from the force
