CF Hood not sitting right

[zeth]

Hi guys,

I just bought this CF Hood for my car and it doens't sit right along the fender line. Any of you got this problem before?

Fitment is fine (good gap, shuts properly, etc) just that on the side it sits higher -.-

most fiberglass or even cf hoods are not 100% made like stock fitment. this is a common problem. improvise to close the gap as much as you can... like fitting hood pins and such.. or better still get a replacement cf hood from your supplier until such problem is minimized.

Thansk for the reply ftzone :)

In the process of getting a replacement from the supplier but he kept on asknig me to go to a body shop to be 'Professionaly Fitted'.

No matter how good u fit it, the hood still sits higher anyways so yeah.. just trying to see people's input on this..
