thanx

What kind of shape is the hinge in when the hood is open? Did it pull away from the body? Spring broken? hinge bent? Something's going on if it won't allow the hood to sit flush...let us know what you find out.

 

Sounds like the hinge came loose. Probably just need to readjust it (they slide on bolts on the hood itsself and on bolts under hood) and retighten the bolts. But there are a few other possibilities. Like bluesfool said above, check it out, and post back with info and any other questions.

 

ok ill take a look at it and ill also post some pics of it
