Default Trouble adjusting a'pexi coilovers

i'm having trouble adjusting the front coilovers on my '00 accord coupe.
once i get to about 30 threads from the bottom of the assembly, i run out of room for the c wrench to get in there. part of the body of the car protrudes so there isn't room to get the wrench in to adjust the height.

has anybody else experienced this? is there another way to adjust the height other than using the c wrnech supplied with the coilovers? i tried using a flathead screwdriver and a hammer, but it took a long time and i'm afraid it will chip away the grooves for the wrench to go in to.

any suggestions would help.
