New hood



Why is yours black before paint!

lol and mine was white?

Also what did you have to do in order to make it Lock and Fit Flush?


I already adjusted my Hood Stops as low as they would go. but something about the Latch isn't locking properly


thanks in advance to any insight

Haha its black cause its used and I am not sure what to tell you I bolted it up and had a latch issue so I adjusted the stops just slightly and she latched right up I don't know if I just got lucky or if the person before me had already made some adjestments to the hood or what.

yeah.... But god damnit i cant get it to Lock into place.

wonder what i gotta do.

Take a photo of Your Hood latch will ya? maybe he bent it or something to get it to fit.

know what kinda GP it came off? mines a 98
 
Sorry I couldn't tell ya I know he is on the forum every now and then maybe he will see the post and post a reply haha fingers crossed. But i will go take a quick picture for you see if it will help.

Edit: actually pictures wont help there doesn't look like anything special was done. I checked my stops and both mine are all the way down also. I am not sure what to tell you. I hate trying to give advice when I am not there.

Cool - glad you're blending. There's not much worse than someone just flopping a panel on a car that has been painted elsewhere. :th_thumbsup-wink:
