I installed these on my 00 CSVT. At first when I closed the hood the shock rested ona bolt head and held the hood up slightly, kinda bowing the hood. I just took a pair of pliers and bent the lip downward along the whole lip on both sides. You cant even tell I did it now and the hood shuts as normal. All in all I love this mod.
