Default new hood(dirty pix)

So my new hood came in last night(without the muchneeded hardware[:@]). So I bought some hardware tonight, FYI (4)1/4"x20 3/4" long bolts and (4)lock washers. The hood just went on, but appearantly the hinges are truly ****ed up because the hood is misalignedand looks likecrap and was a pain in the **** to get the hinges and holes lined up, so thats why it sits low on the driver side and high on the passenger side. Incase some dont remember, my hood flew up and thats what appearantly destroyed my hinges.

Enjoy...












The car sure is awful dirty, what else did you think I meant by "dirty pix"?[8D]

the height depends on where the manufacturer reads it from, ie Cervini measures from the top of the cowl to the very bottom of the hood, HO measures from the top of the cowl to the lower rise so cervinies 3.5"=HO 2.5"
