Having some problems closing the bonnet at the moment, it closes normally, but for some odd strange reason, the gap on one side is wider then the other, plus from front view, the bonnet is not closing on top of the front bumper properly.

Will post up some pictures soon!

Lol, on my gsi once, my bonnet woulnt open or close and i couldnt work out why, found a minor bird dead in the part where the bonnet locks to the body of the car lol.... I remmeber hitting it at about 40kmh, just saw a massive puff of feathers flare up, didnt think anything more of it untill my bonnet wouldnt open lol.

open up the bonnet, and just push on the bonnet, close bonnet, check gaps, repeat if you have to. dont be afraid to use your musels

just mess with the hinge screw, loosen them. check gaps then retighten.

if this is OEM should be perfect fit.
