Add washers to the bolts. 1/2 thick. You will also need to lift/bend a few small sections to clear the spaced t bar

try to move your hood as far back as the hinge will allow.
shim your t bar support half an inch or so. Use washers and add or remove washers as you see fit. its not that difficult. Just make sure the hood closes properly and tug the hood to make sure it doesnt fly open while you're on the highway.

I bought a brand new t bar support. Might still be available if you contact certain countries.
