Question on new aftermarket hood alignment...

I just got a new fiberglass hood for my Z28 from harwood, its sorta like the ultra-Z hood except it comes back into a cowl instead of being even with the hood at the top, but it wont line up right with the fenders like the hood isnt bowed up enough. theres like a quarter inch gap between the hood and the fenders right in the middle, but it lines up good everywhere else, well almost... one side is high and looks decent but the other is nearly a half inch off in the middle but is lined up perfect with the top and bottom of the fenders, anyone else had htis problem with harwood hoods, i need major suggestions on this one. Also while im postin i might as well ask about openin the hood up, it was suppose to be functional when i got it but it came all closed up and i was wanderin how hard it was to open the ram-air part up without screwin up the fiberglass and causin it to crack from stress and look ragged where its cut.

all suggestions greatly apreciated, thanks in advance.

Re: Question on new aftermarket hood alignment...

no i dont... ill try and get some posted in the next few days, but you'll have to disregard the look of the car cause its suppose to rain about everyday this week and she'll be dirty in the pics :-p . the alignment to me seems like the hood wasnt even made for my car though, mostly cause it fits at top and bottom but way off in the middle on each side =/...
