RKsport Hood

I just got the hood installed and painted.. and it looks good and stuff.. The only issue I have (cause I am picky) is the drivers side of the hood (on the front) is sitting a little higher at the grill. And also the sides of the hood isn't level with the fenders.. It sits a little higher in the middle portion of the hood.

Now after looking at some pictures on here.. It looks as though that is the way the hood is.. Maybe it's just the say the molds are coming out.. But too me the hoods should sit perfect just like the stock hood...

Does anyone have some up close pictures of there hoods to compare.. I mean I guess maybe I am just too picky...

If that is the way it sits.. Then I am thinkin I might just sel the hood if someone wants it.. I might pick up a carbon fiber hood.

I had to adjust the stoppers under the hood and i removed the one middle one so it would latch. The only thing i dont like about my cf hood is that the passenger side has more of a gap than the drivers side. but i couldnt get it adjusted to be even.

yeah that is true haha nothing seems to fit perfect. I got CF becuz the price you would pay for a fiberglass hood + paint would still be more than CF. I got my hood for 500.
