Sorry, I don't have information on how to adjust the headlight. But as I understand it, the headlights are designed to be cut off like that on the left side. If you point the headlights on the wall it should look similar to this photo I found online of a random car:


I think the point is to not blind oncoming traffic but I can definitely be wrong lol

Is this causing you to be unable to see at night? If not, I think it's intentional that the left side is a bit lower than the right, so as not to shine in the faces of drivers in oncoming traffic.

No I can see it's just I think it would look nicer if it opened up the road more

The right side being a little higher is also to illuminate street signs. There are little metal cog looking circle thingies (best way I could describe them) on the back of the headlight housing accessed from inside the engine bay. Use a philips head screwdrivers to adjust the beam. I did i after I lowered my car.

The pattern is that way by design for safety.
