    My wipers are sitting up higher than I would like when they are all of the way down. Is there an adjustment for this?

    I've never had my the wipers off on my Ferrari but have on many other cars and I can't imagine why Ferrari would be any different.

    Where the wiper arm disappears into the cowling, lift the cover, pry the rounded cover on the very end of the arm. This will expose a nut holding the arm onto a splined shaft. Remove the nut and lift, pry the arm off of the shaft and reinstall having turned it one spline. Keep fussing until you find the arm height you like.

    Hope this helps.

    TOM B is spot on, the only other thing that can cause your problem is if you have non stock wiper arms / blades.
