  • hood install

    OK guys i installed a SLP ultra z hood yesterday and I am a little lost here. I cant seem to get the front of the hood to go down low enough it sticks up higher then the front bumper by about 1/2-3/4 of an inch. I have adjusted the rubber bumpers all the way down. Is there andything elses to adjust for this, any tips or tricks--thanks in advance

    Try adjusting the latch plate that is bolted to the radiator support. there should be just a couple of bolts and the holes are elongated for adjustment purposes. If you bottom that out and the hood still doesn't fit flush, you may need to modify the bolt holes.
