There is a rubber bumper on both sides in the front screw into the rad. core support, is to high, and it is not letting your hood go down enough. This rubber screws up and down for adjustment. If it is down all the way, then you can cut or grind a little off of the top of it to let the hood set down some more. Also you can get a little from spacing the last bolt of the fender( next to the grill) with a washer, under the bolt that holds it to the rad. core support. If you have dropped the hinges as far as they will go down on the fender sides, then you will have to slot the bolt holes in the hinges like I suggested. To do this, you will have to remove the hinges. It takes a lot of opening and closing to get the adjustment correct.
