Congrats, nice hood. I had a similar problem with mine. The hinges can be loosened and moved in any direction. That will help. I ended up putting washers in between the hinge and the hood to move it over a bit. Mine fits perfectly now.

Yeah, I know what you mean about the rise. Lot's of room though . Thanx for the compliment. The GFX are from A&A Specialties. I have the whole package on the car.

Some of the internet car part companies sell them, too, cheaper than from A&A. I think mine was about $500-$600. I forget, it's been about 5 years.
