 * I am using the Thematic theme for this site I am working on.
 * This is my first WordPress modification so I am learning as I go.
 * The site is: [http://hotrodhoochhotwheels.com](http://hotrodhoochhotwheels.com)
 * The issue I am focusing on now, is the menu bar.
 * When you hover over a menu item – a grey box appears, with it’s top aligned with
   the top of the Menu bar image (Road).
 * I would like to move the box lower. I have tried padding and other things, but
   I can’t seem to figure it out.
 * _**Can someone look at the site and help me figure out which file and how to 
   modify it?**_

           padding-top:5px;
           padding-bottom:5px;
       }
       #access .windows .sf-menu li {
           margin-top:16px;
       }
       ```

 * Any other ideas as to how to change this?
