I thought that gap was correct, no? Or you just think yours is too much? Looks good in the picture.

Just trying to get it a little tighter. It looks good the way it is though. Nice and even.

They're not the most fun thing to get dialed in.

Original cars I've owned have always had the front bumper flush with the fender (often to a point where the bumper's outer edge endura has actually become deformed), and the leading edge of the hood a bit rearward of the front of the fender to create the gap required for hood motion.

But when I first saw your picture, like jhein I thought the way yours is gapped looked really good - consistent all the way across.

The car looks absolutely fantastic!
