Default Radiator Sits too high

when i purchased my eg i noticed a dent on the hood and discovered the radiator wasn't the stock one. I believe it is from a del sol and its sits a little too high and causes the hood no to lock perfect. I dont have the chash right now to get an aftermarket one, but does anyone have any ideas on on to lower the radiator so it wont rub on my hood? thanks

Is the bottom part of the radiator sitting on the support mounts (on the bottom)?
