I ordered the L88 long hood that eliminates the wiper door for my 69. They said that it will not fit flush up by the windshield and the fender, is this something I should expect? I am going to have it painted and I think it can be fixed by the paint guy but I am not sure yet. I ordered it from Eklers.
Thanks
Brandon
