Did you put the ball end above or below the plastic and rubber when you mounted it to the fender?

My passenger side is fine, but the driver's side is up just enough to feel a difference. Pressing down lightly on the seam seats the hood along that edge. I've thought of trimming the rubber layer, which, along with the plastic tab, I put above the bolt/ball end. I'm just a little uncertain, since I can't simply look in and see what's interfering with what, so I am looking for ideas.

Thanks for your help.
