I recently bought a cervinis hood and everything fits pretty well except one thing. The hood closes fine, and when i pull the last it pops up to the first step, but then trying to over it all the way is hard, i really have to yank on it. Its almost as if i cant pull the little bar thing with the yellow plastic piece over far enough, like somthing is blocking it. Anyone have any idea on how i can adjust the hood latch so it will work?
 
Had the same problem with mine. If I remember correctly, had to grind off the little tabs on the catch assembly. By doing this it allowed me to move the catch assembly enough to over come the problem you are having. Hope this helps.
You say everything on yours fits perfectly? I have trouble with mine clearing the windshield wiper arm on the driver side. Also the cowl cover hits the hood on the driver side. If I raise the hood up about 1/4" it will clear both but then look like S**t!
