Let me clarify, the bumpers adjust the hood so it is the same height as the fenders. This sometimes has to be adjusted when installing an aftermarket fiberglass hood. The fender, for all intents and purposes, is in a fixed position.
A professional can move and shim a fender but it shouldn't be attempted by a hobbyist.

Every single is I have seen has the same missaligned hood with fenders.
Bringing the rubber up wil fix it but will cause more gap with the front bumper.
Rather leave it as is then increase the bumper/grille gap.

Good find! I noticed this the other day also and will have to try adjusting that piece. Now im just curious as to how or why that piece was adjusted in the first place....
