Any of you ever notice your decklid sticking out past your rear ? I went down to Thorobread(sp?) Chevrolet awhile back to talk to a guy I know about repainting my car and he pointed out that my hinges were bent.. hence it sticking out about an inch! He had his guys do their best in trying to straighten it out but it still wasn't perfect, but better.

Over the last week, they must've weakened even more because now my latch is really difficult to mate up to the hatch motor. There's about 1-1.5" between my roof and the glass.

Anybody have any good ones laying around collecting dust that they'd like to get rid of? This is really driving me nutzo.

You talking about this? (see pic below) perdy much every camaro I have ever seen, that is, when I payed attention, has had the wing stick out just a tad from the sides of the spoiler. I thought it was normal

FYI: My spoiler looks nothing like that now!

you can adjust that... loosen the big bolts holding the glass to the deck lid and it can be moved some, as can the yop hinges i think.
