    When the car was delivered to me, the driver told me that he couldn’t open the fuel lid at the petrol station.

    The fuel lid on our NSX has very little clearance around it and while the lid is made from plastic, the rear wing is aluminium so two different materials reacting to the sudden temperature chance as soon as

    The front bumper is too close to the bonnet and also the R side headlight cover is too low.

    The owner reported that from time to time,
    he couldn’t open the lid.

    Adjusting the lid alignment is always tricky as the clearance is very narrow
