Default why do my wipers hit my hood?

Well my wipers have ben off my car for a long time now I'm tring to put them back on, and now I have a jdm front crx and the wipers are hitting hood when I try to open the hood, or they won't hit if the wipers are 1/4 way up the window, I really don't want to run hood spacers, any ideas to fix this?

try switching the wipers. I put them on wrong and it did the same thing before.

Put the driver on the pass side and vice versa.

good luck!

I have had the same problem with my carbon hood. When my winshield wipers come back down they slip under the hood and it has caused a little chip in the clear coat. You can't notice it but I know its there!
