I thank you for the suggestion on slotting the hinges.I can also bend the hinges so the hood lines up.I was looking for more of a profesonal anwser not how to jury rig something.Are there adjustment slots on the hinges which are under the fender.I know toyota did not build a car with no way to adjust the hood Backwardbob
