I wrecked my eg hatch pretty good back in 2000. got everything lined up as much as I could, hood would latch. The only thing that sucked was drilling through my cf hood for the pins.

hood pins ftw. I would get locking ones if this is a dd.

that doesnt look too jacked- id rock the hood pins if the latch is the only thing that is keeping the hood from being flush
