ok so i guess im a bit fat but i havent tried to close my hood since i pulled my motor and now i am doing my intercooler setup and i needed to see if my hood will clear. but anyway im guessing the hood latch support bent from me leaning on it. Any ideas on how to fix this? i think the whole mess is just pressed down.

 

Way to go fatty. j/k.

a friend of mine jumped on the hood of my last 7 and did the same **** to mine... except he broke the bolt in the front of it that holds it to the bracket. Bend what you can back and it should be fine as long as nothing "broke".
