I can definitely "make" it work i just feel like i shouldnt be contorting a carbon fiber hood to make it fit the way it should naturally. I'm probably going to end up opening up the holes in the hinges to let me slide it side to side a little and shim up one side to even it with the other.

You're definitely right, you shouldn't be contorting the hood to make it fit and it's pretty moronic that Seibon was telling you to do just that. I really don't know what's going on with them.

Let us know how it goes
