There is a guy on here who sells these little wedge things, which users have given positive reports. I’m sure someone will remember who he is.
Here he is, roadie Hoop rubbing solution
I’ve always lowered and raised mine form outside- every single time in 7.5 years, and I’ve got the same roll hoop/hood gap as when i bought it. I think some of it is down to luck. I’ve seen new ones in dealerships over the last few years with the hood rubbing in the down position. and I’ve seen clearance on some too. It seems a lottery. And appalling it still occurs, nearly DECADE on.
Roadie’s wedges seem a good solution in any case, for not much outlay.
