On the Z1 site it says the hood opens Within 2" of stock. Is that 2" more or less than a stock open hood?

Good. I'd rather it be higher than lower. Thanks for the feedback and video.

Quick question..

I ordered a kit similar to this one a couple months ago, the driver side hood will not line up with the fenders (3mm gap)

Will this one give me the same problem?

We haven't experienced that issue. Do you have a pic you can post?
