[QUOTE="W30bob, post: 1437472, member: 20651"] To make the hood easier to close here's what you do.....There are two rubber bumpers, one on each side at the front corner of the radiator support, that support the hood when it's closed. Turn each one a half turn clockwise (when viewed from the top), then lower the hood (don't drop it). With the hood resting on the rubber bumpers push down on the hood in the center. If it latches you're good to go, if not continue to turn the rubber bumpers a half turn at a time and repeat the process until the hood catches with a moderate amount of pressure. The Mach 1 guys were reporting lots of cracked hoods because the bumpers were set too high. It works, I did it on my GT, and now my Cobra. Of course if it closes too easily, or you can feel some up and down play in the hood when closed you need to turn the rubber bumpers the other way to remove the play. bob [/QUOTE]
