hey guys just a question i have recently installed a carbon fiber hood and i have about a quarter of an inch gap on both sides before the fenders...... I tried to push the hood up and push the fenders in but thats the best i got it. Does anyone have a suggestion how i could get the hood to sit flush ?

 

I think alot of the carbon hoods are like this, mine is also, not really much you can do about it.

 

Yah its just the nature of cf hoods return it and try a different brand/batch

 

pics?

 

did you trying adjusting height with the rubber stoppers in the front? you can rotate those to try and level it out. I have a small gap on mine too but not very noticable.100% flush you probably wont get.

 

This.

My friends have experience with CF hoods on Hondas and Toyotas and the worst I've ever seen was a hood that looked like an 8/10 scale replica of what it should have been. I'm talking 1 to 1.5" gaps all around. It seriously looked like the hood belonged on a totally different car!

 

i didnt try the rubber stoppers i just did it and it helped pretty well.. one side is almost flush the other is a bit off not much...... Does anyone have a problem with just using the hinge instead of installing hood pins ?
