Default raptor hood fitment issue.

i just installed my raptor hood on my 98 ta. It fits flush on both sides but on the right the gap is slightly bigger than on the right side. Also on when the hood is closed the gap from between the headlights and the hood. The right headlight has more of a gap than the left headlight when the hood is closed.

The only thing i cant seem to figure out is when the hood is closed it hits the lower bumper and its kinda a tight fit .

Can anyone help

i ordered it from ls1speed. i got it fit though. those hinges on the hood is kinda at a 90 deg angle where the 2 bolts go on the side i drilled em out to slide the hood forward about an 1/8th or so and now its ok. so try that. also if you have some problems with the front you can adjust that piece where the hood latch goes.
