Suggestion: Hook up with a fat chick. Have her sit on your hood daily for an hour or so until the hood straightens out. Dump fat chick. (Or, discover that you enjoy fornicating with fat chicks and realize that the bow in your hood could be the best thing that ever happened to you.)

But seriously man, Ew. That sucks.

Yea, I noticed the shetty hood, too. [:-]

I like the wheel and tire combo, looks mean.

Gotta love the mismatching tires, too. Only time you can get away with that is if the rears are drag radials. Apparently the KDW2's were just too much to put on the front, too.

I'm guessing there are hood struts hiding under there, hence the bow right about where they connect. That's one of my concerns about fibre hoods, their flex.

Yep, hood struts wont work with most aftermarket hoods. You might have to go back to the factory hood prop.


And resize that pic bro, it's WAYYYY to big!

Va stang - you are having one seriously bad run of luck with hoods. Was the hood not test fitted before proceeding with prep/paint? I wouldn't be able to live with that kind of fit - hopefully you can just remove hood struts and all will be well.
