Hey everyone, got my first z a few months ago! Best choice I've ever made... But anyways... I have a carbon fiber hood on my car that came with the car when I bought it (it's not in very nice shape but... one problem at a time). I don't mind the condition but it really isn't fitting correctly. The left side of the hood is a little too low below the fender and the right side is about a half inch too high above the fender. It doesn't seem bad up close but when you take a step back it's not real pretty. I was wondering if anyone had experienced this before or knew how to fix my problem :confused: I'm not really sure what to do. Thanks!

Welcome!
There are rubber stops that "screw" up and down to level the hood, unless collision damage has altered things enough that it causes the misalignment.
Usually they are rotten/broken, new ones can be purchased at Z1 and CZP.
Good luck!
