There is a vertical adjustment screw on the top of the headlight. Body shops & some repair shops can align your headlights properly.

no no no, a body shop does it like this, justl ike everyone else, since not everyone has that expensive adjustment kit. just park your car on a flat surface about 1.5-2 car lenghs from a wall and adjust it that way.

A good body shop will do it correctly. Using a wall will get you close to a proper adjustment. To do it right, an optical headlight aligner is needed.
