its tiwsted? comes down on the back of the drivers fender? huge gp on pass side, when I close it the back of the hood stays 1.5" up and I have to push down the only thing that is correct is the gap on either side at the front?

one other thing to look at if these are aftermarket fenders.where the top fender bolts to the cowl.that bolt hole usually ends up with shimms under it,but there may be some extra metal interfearing with that hinge shutting all the way untill you press the back down ,only takes a little to screw the shutting of hood.easy to see if engine not in car(crawl inside)
