Trunk lid &seal

[BP80Z28]

When I close the trunk without the seal in the right side drops down about a 1/4Inch from the quarter.And the left side is just about flush a little lower.When I put the seal in to test it the right side is good but the left side is high.Is there an adjustment to make these even.

Mine sticks up on one too,so i'm curious to find out as well

Well,you could try loosening the spoiler mounting nuts,and twisting the trunklid while its open,then retightening a few of the nuts where its at.
Im not sure if you can get enough out of it with the stocker all welded,lol.
But its worth a try.

My trunk had a shim in it.

Must of been installed at the factory to make things sit even.

Why not try one??

Shims can go between the hinge attachment point and the trunklid. I have a couple in there just to make things even. Originally, I attempted to muscle it by twisting but was unsuccessful.

First...are the rubber bumpers installed on the rear outside corners?

One of those springs is stronger than the other too on a spoiler car.
