That what I'm saying. I think it's the middle area. When I closed it to see what areas was touching, it was only that area. The area around still had room, even the seal around the filter had tons of room still. I will find out tomorrow when I go to the body shop , hopefully thats the only thing that's preventing it from the closing 🤞🏾

The box still had planty of room. It's the filter height that the issue , touching the lowest point of the hood.
The box still had room, at the point when the hood stops.
I actually got good view, peeping thru the vents when closing it.

Then you might only have to open up the back to allow it go down some. I had to do that as well. I had everything hitting.

Also what I notice, and depending what coupler you use, if it's stiff or thick. It will push the filters forward, making it harder to close the hood.
If you look up pictures of trans am, that has the volant intake. The filters are more push back because they are using flexible couplers.
The volant on my car, the filters are push forward. Because of the couplers I'm using. They are really thick and stiff.

That box is nice with the filter tho 😭 we'll see what happens.

It's time to update my tune since a lot has been installed in the past months. But first after I replace the opti-curse. Code 36 has been sticking around lately, so it's about that time lol.
