When I close the hood of my SS with the SLP lid on it the lid hits the top of the hood. I just got the car on saturday and it was like that. Is this normal, if not how can I fix this. And does any one else have this problem.

Thanks, Nick

Make sure that you have ALL of the rear tabs on the lid in place before latching lid down. If not, the latches will pop loose and the lid will rub on the hood.

also make sure the front of the lid is tucked behind the little lip apposed to over the lip...if you go look at it you will se what i mean..

If the above fails, you can try and make some adjutments with the latch and front hood stops. Your hood might be sitting a bit lower in the front.

My hood hits my SLP lid too, just enough to make white marks. My hood already has a front gap that needs to be closed, and if I do so then it definately will not clear it. I was also going to get the WS6 air box, but then I didn't because I don't know HTF I will get it to close unless I grind the damn hood.

I double checked both of those before I posted becasue I didn't want to post, get someone to suggest that, that fix it and then seem like a dumbass.



I'll try that in the morning, I'm pretty sure it's been doing this since who ever owned the car before me put the lid on becasue the paints already worn through in the spot it's touching.

Thanks, for you input.
