I'm freakin worried I may have to go this route. After my car was hit most of the stuff up front doesn't quite fit where its posed to. The hood is mostly affected and I have tried to adjust the hood arms and brackets to make it sit flush but it just will not meet up right and the hood latch and hook do not meet up correctly either. But I can hand place the hood over and press it down and it seems to look ok.. My question is.. Has anyone gone the hood pin route? Never been a fan of it myself.. But its looking like its my best option????
