Am i happy with this ? I would give it a 3 out of 10 , look at the side gap , and thats after 2 hours of trying to adjust it ! Anyone have issues with there's ?

Might sell it ! anyone want it send me a PM

Heh, you should see the gap on the driver's side of mine. It's not too bad now, after 3 hours of tinkering, but the gap is larger than on the passenger side. I adjusted the fenders to make things look more even.

Yeah im not sure what im going to do , It bugging the crap out of me

570.00 and i get gaps ....not too happy

i'd be pissed too man. that sucks!

When i saw the pic i thought then i saw that HUDGE GAP

Has your car ever been in a accident? I assume you adjusted the latch over. It also makes a difference on how you tighten the hood levers on the side, try not to tighten one side all the way, and than go tighten the other. Alot of times the side you tighten first has will have the biggest gap. I found its best to snug each of the bolts up, than tighten them. All hoods come from the same mold and are the same size. I know its a pain, but try messing with it some more. Let us know how it goes.

Yeah i'll play with it some more tomorrow 1 other thing i didnt like was the dip in it, soon when it rains it will be a swimming pool LOL

i think i would like the hood alot more without the dip in the cowl also. or if that part was cut open to have extra "cooling".

try adjusting your fender as well, that might help a bit

I took my STOCK hood off and had gaps bigger than that. tinker with it. It sucks but you'll never get it to the way it was from the factory.
