I know that GT-4 hood doesn't fit precise for GT but does anyone have pics how it fits? There will be some "inch gap" somewhere I have heard...

the stock hood latch will still work. however the safety hook is too short. if you pull on the hood release handle, the hood won't even pop up. this gets risky because you won't be able to differentiate between a properly closed hood, and a hood that is being held by the safety hook alone. you might have your hood fly open on the freeway if the hood isn't properly closed.

It's happened to at least a dozen or so members on here over the years.
