All U Vis Cf Hood Owners

I have a question on the VIS CF Hood. I just got mine yesterday and i put it on 2day but for some reason there seems so be a small gap (about half and inch or so) between the fendor and the hood on each side. Also when looking at the car from the fron there seems the left side seemd to sit up higher towards the windshield. Has any ones else encounterd such problems? if so can you guys let me know what i can do to fix it?

you didnt think it would fit perfect out of the box did you? lol
grab your wrench and start adjusting.

You can move your front fenders in just a touch by loosening the bolts under the hood to tighten up those gaps on the sides....loosen and move the hinge bolts to adjust your angle etc etc.

its just gonna take a little time and effort to get it right.

I was told they all do that, regardless of who makes it. You might get lucky on a honda hood every now and then, but generally they all do that. I am sure there is a reason, what it is I could not tell you.

you can also adjust the hood by repositioning the latch higher or lower according to your needs...

there are rubber mounts that support your hood that you can twist in and out. this will cause the opposite side of the hood to move up and down.

just play with it for a little it takes some time to get it just right.
