It was actually an accidental post. I was trying to get some advise for a better fit. I am having the most problems with getting the head lights to clear the hood on both sides, and also trying to straighten the gap where the hood meets the hood. Any advise?

The passenger side has the stops all the way down. The drivers side has the stops up and shims in different places. I think I might have to go and have the frame tweaked, it is probably not straight.
