EG: Hood Shut, front looks weird- pic inside
On the left side, my hood doesnt look shut right, notice the gap
I have a 1994 Honda Civic CX hatchback with A/C. Could this A/C thing be in the way of the hood?
This:
Maybe a cf hood would fix this

ROFLMAO! That's your radiator, champ, but it's 100% not getting in the way of your hood closing, regardless.
From the picture it looks like your hood is warped. I've never seen a non-damaged hood do that, but you can check the rubber spacers that your hood rests on to be sure.

</TD></TR></TABLE> That is what I was thinking because the fenders are nice and tight and so are the headlights... try opening the hood and hold it just like you would if you were just looking. Pull down with your left hand and up with your right in a short, jerky motion. Whether it's warped or not, that will help allign it. A lot of body shops do that so they don't have to mess with actaully alligning the front end. shhhh!

Re: EG: Hood Shut, front looks weird- pic inside (the_0ne)
It looks to me like it's just mounted wrong...
the top corner (closest to the driver side mirror) looks like it's high and out... where as the front opposite corner (closest to the front pass. headlight) looks like it's down and in...
Have you had your hood off?
If not then like the others said it's probobly your bumper... I can't imagine that happening all of a sudden without having the hood bolts going to the hinges off...
but the gap definately looks tighter to me on the driver side.

hell yeah i do. listen to them because I've never seen a hood like that. I doubt something in the engine bay is keeping it from closing

Well You're a DUMBASS... (me)...
Look at the pass. headlight... the bumper is OBVIOUSLY seriously warped...
It's MUCH higher (in between the nipples) then the other side...
