I couldn't quite follow what you are saying. I had to pre-install the hood
and lower valance to square in the fenders before I was able to start the
adjustments that let me square up the headlight buckets and those
polyurethane bumpers to the front fenders, then I went on to installation of
the front chrome bumper. I did have to make several (understatement)
adjustments to the fenders and all of the front nose assembly before I was
complete. Patience and about three days of coming back to make adjustments
before I was satisfied.
What I am saying is the lateral and vertical placement of the fenders is a
part of the nose cone adjustment routine. The factory must have had a jig
to assemble the front end, then they put the whole front end on the car. We
have to decipher what that placement was, because we are creating all of
those placements as per our desire.
The nose cone is frustrating, but patience will get you where you want to
be.
