Any one that's installed these notice a little bigger of a gap right here the white sling has them and the grey sling does not im talking about the gaps between the black trim
Mad stad hinges

-
Lower the hood bumpers down
Only thing that could cause that. -
I have the same problem on mine, I have taken it apart and reinstalled the original just to make sure the gap wasn't there.
Installed the SSO hinges again very carefully and the gap is there.
Talked to SSJimmy and he said I needed to loosen the bolts and close the hood then tighten as many as I can after I lined everything up, however I haven't been able to make it work.
I love the idea behind the hinges but they are giving me more trouble than what they are worth, so I am thinking of just putting stock one back on and calling this a lost.

I will do a video on install this week so people can see proper install and adjustment.

I dont have a video but its not hard to install....
Here are some pictures of mine

What I had to do is just loosen the bottom spoiler by loosening the 4 bolts on each side and then just slightly moving it up to match the hood. It only takes a minute to do and it made mine perfect.
Once you hit a few concrete barriers it wont matter anyway.....

To me it seems like the hood sits 1 centimeter forward with the SSO Hinges vs stock.
I have tried everything i can think off from loosening things then have people help me adjust the hood into a "better angle/position and hold it there while i tighten everything to closing the hood with every bolt super loose then try to move/slide it into position and then tighten the bolts with the hood closed to completely removing the hood stoppers(or whatever they are called) and it is still not lining up.
