Hood adjustment

[OrangCrush]

I have a Cervinis cowl induction hood and I think there is too much gap between hood and fender. I tried adjusting and it was perfect on one side and not the other. The way I have it now I can see the weatherstrip through the gap. Is this just how it fits?

Have you tried adjusting your fenders? My factory hood to fender gap was off. I just pulled back the weather strip and loosened the fender screws under it. Adjusted the fender according and retightened. I had to do this several times because you can’t see the gap until the hood is closed.

So do I loosen all three bolts and push in on fender and tightened?

Yep. That’s all I did. There are several bolts under the weather strip.. you say 3. I can’t remember. But that’s all I did and it worked fine for me.
