I have a Spoon-type Hong Kong knock off. 2 minutes of trimming with a Dremel took care of my hood clearance issues. Down at the inlet, I trimmed so the duct went around the grille pc. Also repositioned the hood prop mount and clip because the hood was hitting it vs. the duct.

I had the Spoon for a while. The trick is to get some foam tape and stick it to the hood where it's hitting. A lot of these things get pretty banged up if you're not careful but mine looked good as new when I sold it. The only problem I had was the hood needed a little extra pressure to click shut. No big deal, though.

yeah, I took it out(duct) jus to make sure the hood wasn't hitting it. So im still hesitent to put it back cause i dont want some thing bad to happen. Im gonna work on it today and figure this out, because it shouldn't be a problem from what i understand.-MARCUS
