Default HELP!! installing CF hood

Okay ladies and gentlemen! I have just installed a CF on my 1998 Civic sedan. The only problem i'm having is closing it shut. I tried to push it down but it won't close tightly. If my eyes aren't mistaken me, I believe it has about a 1 inch gap which will not close shut. If anyone can help me, I would greatly appreciate it. THANKS IN ADVANCE Paul

You need to adjust the hood latch. There will be two 10mm bolts holding it in place, and you must move it up or down for it to shut, then just tighten them back up.

I believe its made by fiber images but i'm not sure. I got them from a friend of mine. He sold his car and I got the hood for the right price (under $200.00). Perfect condition
