Anyone has the same problem that happen after installed the Stillen Gen 3 CAI? its hard to notice but if you i look carefully, i can see the gap on the driver side, i try to push down but still coming back. here are the pic for left and right, sorry for not very clear of the pic.from iphone quality....

 

my right side does stick up, but I am 99% sure its NOT b/c of the intake...you can adjust the height of the catch I believe (at least in every other car Ive had you could) I just havent taken the time to try mine yet

 

anything that relate to the bumper? cuz it is not like that before I took my bumper off.

 

well that I also am 99% sure about, b/c I've NEVER taken my bumper off, so I highly doubt its related to the bumper. I'll play around with mine some and see if I can diagnose it

 

Take some chalk or paint and brush on the highest point of the intake tubes. Close the hood, and see if the chalk/paint gets transferred onto the inside of the hood. If so, then you need to adjust the tubes.

First time hearing this problem about the Stillen intakes though, should be fixable.

 

it's because you pressed the bumper too hard.
it got bent. Did you take out and re install the front bumper or grille?

 

^^you would have to press pretty danm hard to bend the hood

I just went out and looked and mine and fixed it perfectly...next to the hooks that actually hold the hood down there are rubber pieces...if you turn them counter clockwise they expand and make the hood sit higher and if you turn them clockwise they tighten and make the hood sit lower. I tightened mine all the way and now the hood is perfectly flush

 

yes i did remove the bumper and grill...

 

I'll go and check that out, Thank you man!

 

I tried to screw the rubber beside the hook, but still it doesnt work.......

 

If it's bent, use a heatgun and pull it back again. it's not a big deal.

 

I have same issue but on the passenger side after the gen3 install..did remove the bumper top section urgh fuuuuk..semi-fixed it but hood doesn't line up well by the fenders lmao

 

Open ur hood all the way, look up under the hood and you'll see a round rubber piece sticking out of the hood on each side, now that you've located the rubber grommets, turn em to either to the left or the right to ur desired location till ur hood closes flush to the bumper.

 

did you get it fixed..if so what was the problem

 

i semi-fixed it..adjust those things on the hood as best as possible its still a bit off somehow i believe its the bumper itself even though i don't see how it is lol idk wutever
