My bastard hood !!

Please excuse the condition , I havn't washed the car in almost a year ! the hood was at home , using the stock hood and fiberglass vent inserts , which were made by hand.

Unless I'm mistaken, the right vent is higher than the other, same with the holes for the hoodpins.

I noticed the right vent looks higher, too...

I can't tell with the hoodpins, though... far too small for me to notice

i'm assuming that's because the hood is open and tilited? so gives an illusion of everything on the right side of hood looks higher...

cuz if u look at the 2nd pic compare to the windshield washer holes, they look fine
