idno, i think it is...its on the driver's side, next to the headlight, it looks like the hood's corner is sorta bent up, has anyone had this problem and is there a quick fix for it....its noticable if you look at it from the fron but from the side it looks fine....
That almost looks like the hood wasn't manufactured right, because that side just looks different from the other. Also, it lines up fine with the fenders.

When i put a ram air hood on my old 3.4, we had to shave the hood brackets with a rat tail file until it had about a 1/4 inch of play, then we got it lined up nice and straight :tup:

if its not a oem hood it will never line up "perfect" even with a oem its still a fun time to get it to line up good...ive heard some horror stories about the ws6 hoods tho

isnt there little black spring things thats can be adjusted to raise and lower the hood when you close it?i think their on the car, not the hood. thats how i lined up my hood.
is it a gm hood or aftermarket? aftermarket hoods don't always line up perfect.
its a aftermarket, not sure what brand, cuz after my sis got in a crash with it, we told the body shop owner if he can get a ram air hood for it, and if he can put stripes on it and he said dont worry bout it ill take care of everything.....everything on the car looks good except for that part of the hood....
I dunno...to me, it almost looks as if the problem is the spot between your left headlamp and the opening on the NOSE, more than the hood being misaligned. It looks pretty good.
hows the bumper peice look when the hood is open, does it look even on both sides?
Im guessing that was replaced too since it was crashed..
Hopefully not the hood, but since you had the body shop do all the work, and you didnt buy the hood for them to put on, you should be able to go back and tell them your not happy with the way they aligned the front end.
