The drivers side on the grill side the hood has about a 1/4" gap on top to about 1/2' gap on bottom it looks the same on the cab side except it over laps the cab more then it should. I pick the bolt holes where that the cross bar goes in for reference points on both side of the hood and the grill is the same distance from the cab. So what do I need to do to fix my hood??
