I posted the problem I have will the hood before, but now I have bolted the fender to the apron and the fender and apron to the tub and lost another 3/16 1/8 of an inch on the gap and the hood rubs bad. I have the room to move the hood over to the passenger side. The only way I can see to do it is open up the holes on the cowling. I had gone with Johns ideas about just leaving it and was probably going to try and turn the hood in on the corner later with a clamp after time, but it rubs too much down the whole length of the hood now. I took the nuts off the studs and poked the hinge studs back up and out to expose the holes for filing, maybe a lazy way but sounded doable; I was even thinking I could notch the stud and slide the hood over that way. Anyways, I am thinking to rat tail file the cowling holes with some tape on the paint and hole so as to maybe not chip it---But again I am looking for smart ideas so the paint does not chip out big, so some one save me please.
