    Hood Fitment Process

    Trying to fit my hood on the body. The attached picture shows that there is about 10 mm more on the hood portion than the pontoon portion of the body, from point A to B in the picture. Before I begin the trimming process, I wanted to check and make sure that was what I was supposed to do. Since I can't add it back once it is trimmed, I was hoping for some guidance on what not to do or the best way to get this done. The extra amount of hood is smaller on the passenger side. I know it has to be trimmed because it is the only way to get the wheel well aligned. Hood Fitment.jpg

    Also, on first look, the nose hinges don't come close to being in the center of the fog light compartments. Is this normal too?

    Thanks,

    Trim the nose to fit…last. If you haven’t already done so do the doors first.
