Sounds like they were not adjusted during the prep or build. Probably easier to take it back to the dealer to adjust. As they will not the settings. Rather than you do it by eye

If you mean they're ponting at the floor, yeah there's a few people on here who find the same thing. There's a white adjuster on the headlights themselves, try a half turn to a full turn anti-clockwise. If you do a search on here you'll see a few threads about it. I've had to adjust the ones on my Leon as they only lit up the road about 10 metres ahead (if that) from the factory. Not great when you're doing 70 as you'd be on top of whatever you see before you even have a chance to brake.
