Need info for a accolade gt hood
hi i was woundering if anyoen here bought a gt hood from Accolade? i got one but i bought it months ago and didnt have th money to get it painted. now that i do i installed it but there seems to be a problom. eveything fits perfect but it does not close all the way down. i have to kinda force it down so i can lock up the hood pins. any one here have the same problem? feels like the back part or the hood is touchign the firewall. 
UM TRY TAKIN OUT THE RUBBER STOPPERS TOWARDS THE FRON THATS ALL I CAN THINK OF. ACCOLADE=crapola sometimeS SO I DUNNO MAN MIGHT BE THE HOOD. BUT MAYBE THE STOPPERS/// GOODLUCK
^ he's actually talking about the back part of the hood near the windsheild, along the firewall.
well the bad thing is a lot of people have had horrible experiences with that hood in the past. that particular hood has horrible fitment issues. people have tried everything from trimming/shaving the hood itself to throwing it in the garbage. thats how bad some of them are. the best thing i can suggest is to take it to a body shop to see if they can give you an idea of what you can do. hopefully they'll be able to help.
