    2019 SR5. Front of hood on drivers side dips below fender. Any ideas on how to correct this problem? And if not correct could it cause any damage?

    When you open up the hood there should be little rubber nubbins on the left and right. You can unscrew them or screw them in until the hood is level.

    Just looked and the one on the drivers side is completely missing. I’ll see if I can find a replacement. Thanks!

    One of mine is missing. Do you happen to have a part number?

    I’m pretty sure they’re universal across a wide variety of different cars, but make sure that this is the right part # first.

    This is what mine looks like although I like the idea of the one you posted much better.

    Is that in front of the battery?

    I didn't check that, the picture I posted is halfway along the side of the hood.

    It’s the thing in front of the battery. You can screw it and unscrew it to adjust the hood height.

    Mine was in front of the battery. I just ordered an assortment pack from Amazon, the oem ones I found were $25. Figured I save $20 bucks.

    I had a missing bumper when my truck was new, went into a dealer I will never go back to and was denied service/satisfaction. I bought a bumper at another dealer and later found the missing bumper in the engine compartment. Don't recall exactly where it was lodged, so no help there.
