I just got an oem style seibon cf hood for my EK hatch. It doesnt really close all the way, unless you really push down on it, and even then you can kinda pull it back up.... can anyone tell me why it does this?

also, has anyone used this hood and needed hood pins? Anything would be helpful, thanks!

 

Can you take any pictures of this on your car? Just to see what kind of gapping we are talking about when it won't 'close' the whole way.

 

its dark out here, otherwise i might be able to figure it out myself..... i was wondering if anyone had this experience witht he same hood... ill take a pic tomorow tho

 

you may need to align the hood (loosen bolts any move slightly till it lines up) or if it lines up good but is tough to close you can adjust the latch... please search archieve topics "hood alignment" "hood align" "hood gap" or "hood latch"

sounds to be you just threw your CF hood on & expected a perfect fitment
