What am I doing wrong here? The top of the hinge is flush with the fenderline; the mounting flange on the hood is about an inch below the fenderline. This is how my AIM shows to install it. And no, I don't want the ram-air effect, only a proper fitting hood.:rolleyes:

Take those hinge pieces apart and swap the upper parts between both sides so the tab is bent down and then bolt the hood up :D You made it all spiffy but assembled them incorrectly ;)

EDIT, here's a pic, shows it better than I can describe. If you have them like you have it now, the hood will sit 2" to high :)
