Default Hood

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

MOST OF THE TIME WHEN YOU BUY AFTERMARKET FIBERGLASS PARTS THEY NEVER LINE UP RIGHT AND ALLWAYS HAVE GAPS.YES YOUR BODDY MAN CAN FIX IT BUT IT WILL COST YOU. IN YOUR WALLET ,IN ALL MY LIVE I HAVE BEAN DOING BODY WORK I HAVE NEVER SEAN A HOOD LINE UP PERFECT WITH OUT ADDING OR REMOVING MATERIAL.YOU HAVE TO EXPECT THAT WITH AFTER MARKET FIBER GLASS PARTS.[]

GOOD LUCK
