HI EVERYBODY,
i JUST BOUGHT A HOOD FROM A MEMBER ON THE BOARDS AND THE HOOD SEEMS NOT TO FIT PROPERLY. EVERY PART ON THE HOOD FITS FLUSH EXCEPT THE LEFT SIDE. THE LEFT SIDE SITS HALF A INCH HIGH. IS THERE A WAY TO STRAIGHTEN THE HOOD?
THANK YOU. I WOULD APPRECIATE THE HELP.

Check to see maybe the bump stops (those rubby things) are too high, you can twist it down a little.

most of the low end stuff will be like that, if you really want to have it sit flush, get a hood pin.

for safety reason as well, i had some sparco pins before too and it help to adjust fitment a tad.

wouldn't help if it's on the left side.

you don't need to bend the latch since the oem locking mechanism is adjustable
