Default Adjusting headlight

I had a new headlight fitted recently and I noticed that it now shines a little bit too high at a certain point. How do I go about adjusting it? Does it involve taking the bumper off?

The right side is how it should be, flat and level. The left side is new and weird..

You need a big long cross head screwdriver. There's a crown nut with teeth that the screwdriver can engage in. Open the bonnet and go through the hole(s) in the wing down towards the back of the light unit for the height adjustment, there's an easier one to get to for left right.

Adjusting the head light doesn't usually alter the beam shape, I'd check the bulb is seated correctly as well
