CO Greeley - Local FC willing to come by to test fit a hood for me?

I bought a mad tite carbon fiber turbo II hood and it won't latch on my car. I am wondering if another FC around town could swing by and we can try to bolt it to your car. I'm going through a big lengthy return policy bs with the company and another car proving it still doesn't fit would be sweet. Let me know if anyone can swing there fc by!

What is wrong with the fitment? If its a fiber Images hood you need to trim the stock rubber hood bumpers and adjust the spring on the stock latch for it all to work properly.

I could not get mine to latch without putting a lighter weight spring on the latch and trimming the bumpers.

lol no i realized I would be a moron if I did it so I spent another 2 grand on custom parts and slicks and fixing little things. I'm going to the dyno soon... then some nitrous is on the way. You get your black FC done yet? I see it all the time in loveland, but it never moves wtf?

If you are still looking for for a test fit vehicle I've got mine with almost nothing in the engine bay getting ready for paint and its on a lift so we could actually stand under it and find out where the closing issue is at. I in longmont, and available a lot of the week.
