Hood Springs

I had a problem trying to get the hood to go down in the back when shutting it. I am sure this is a common problem and I have seen it before. What I did was added an extension to the mounting point where the spring assembly mounts to the hood. It shuts real tight at the back now and I don't have to push it down anymore. It also hepls the hood stay up a little higher.
