C-los...ill type the instructions...just in case

1) open hood
2) lift hood
3) look at hood latches (on the hood itself)...two on the sides, one in the middle w/spring
4) take phillips screwdriver and unscrew the plastic black base to the left and right latch hook (on the hood)...but be careful not to drop anything into your engine bay..there are 3 pieces...black plastic housing, a screw, and a screw sleeve
5) Screw the hooks in evenly (ie...2-3 turns on the left one...same on right side)
6) put the plastic piece back on
7) test hood closure...and if its not closed enough yet, readjust again

***optional #8) remove the two rubber strips that are above your kidney grills (they slide off)...and go to home depot and in the hardware section get a little plastic package of automotive rubber weather strip (7.99). Cut two pieces and stick them down where the old rubber strips were...that way you can really screw the latches in far and get the hood real tight while still having the seal

Thanks for the diy adjustment Alex. I was out with the lady friend for dinner.

And it was a typo Seth. "I'm down"

I'm heading over to Xtreme Graphics now, then Ill Garage, (Right down the block from Xtreme Graphics).

Any of you mother lovers wanna meet me there? Look for the sexy Asian guy in the baby blue shirt, that's too tight...
