W30 Hood

I need help on how to attach the brackets for the fiberglass air induction hoods. I have the hood mounted and the pins on the hood dont line up with the bracket on the core support. Any pictures or something im not doing right? Thanks

When I put mine on I took out the chrome pins, lowered the hood to see where the bracket holes where then lightly adjusted the brackets till the hole was centered. The hood needs to be adjusted correctly before you go bending anything though.
