Default JDM DOHC ZC Hood problems

so like the topic says, i have a dohc zc in my sedan.
i have come across the problem of the hood.
there is supposed to be a little bump in the hood for the timing belt.
my problem, the crx and the hatch hoods that come with the little bump, are too short, by inches.

i searched for a couple of days now, and i cant find it anywhere.

i want to know if anyone has done this to their sdn and how they went around this problem. or better yet, where i can buy a sdn hood that will clear the timing belt.

Have you already removed that humongous timing belt cover? I had a few ef's with that motor and used my usdm hood. The motor didn't have the timing belt cover though-inever had an issue

I cut the webbing out of my CRX hood and it clears. I like to keep the cover there just in case something decides to fall down and destroy my engine.

i really dont want to go with it off, but it may be the only solution i have until this summer when i can do some decent work to my car.
since i need a new hood, i will probably just cut the crap out that is in the way.

thanks guys
