got c-series hood on but a few alignment problems...
ok well the hood swap went pretty smooth but I'm having a few problems with aligning everything up right. first off the front passenger side of the hood is a little close to the fender and second the hood latch is rubbing when it closes. it's almost like if you're looking at the hood from the front of the car you need to be able to pull the passenger side forward a little bit and then shift the whole thing over to the right about a 1/8th inch. right now on the passenger hood bracket the bolts are touching the top of the holes and on the driver side they are touching the bottom of the holes. it almost seems like if I made those holes a bit bigger everything would work but I don't know if that's safe. anyway here are some pics:

looks good dude, i never had any problems when i did my hood, m freind on the other hand had many, it was all tweaked to one side and it was just obviously misaligned, we took it to the autoshop and they fixed it in just about an hour or 2, so i guess u could just have them look at it

I would have a body shop align it ....just to make sure.....I see what your talking about and the hood stops on the passenger side could be lowered a bit to bring the corner level with the fender......the gaps themselves are not bad at all IMO...but a shop can fix it easy!
