Default Convertible trunk panel alignment off, how do I adjust it.

Does anyone know how to adjust the alignment of the trunk on a vert. It is slightly higher at the rear quarter panel where it meets the rear bumper only on the passenger side. I have tried adjusting the black **** on the underside of the panel but that has no effect. Is there a way to adjust either trunk hinge so the rear passenger corner will move lower? Thanks in advance for any help.

I have the same issue with my vert. The dealer said it would have to go to a body shop.

Hey GC,

If you take it back into the dealership I would like to get a case set up for you. This will add some customer support to your experience. Keep me posted,
