Default Wiper problem.

I've had this issue for a while now and have not found any solutions in the CD or in the archives:
When I open the hood it rubs the corner of the drivers wiper arm. I've re-positioned the arm and tightened per spec and even had the dealership adjust it, but nothing seems to work. I was wondering if the dealership had taken off the wiper unit during some repair and while refitting left out some spacer that's causing that side to protrude higher.

Anyone else have this issue? Any tips on possible solutions? I will swap arms from pass to driver side to make sure it is not a blade problem. I think I had done this the first time I noticed it, but I don't remember.

BTW, stock arms and blades.
Thanks,
Byas

Just take the darn thing off, who the heck needs wipers anyway?
