'94 Alignment Issues: Bumper/Hood.etc.??
This is a re-post of a 2009 thread. I still have this issue.
Would anyone of you have pics of the alignment bolts that
adjust the spacing between the hood & the part of the facia
in question? See urls/pics below. Thanks
Need advice on alignment of the bumper & hood on my '94 LT1.
Please see pix:

Actually, your allignment is better than mine. Was in a fender bender a few years ago (the vette was at the dealership and a truck hit the front end). To this day the hood / fender allignment is still off.
Just wondering, is your hood evenly alligned with the front tires. On mine one tire is covered more than the other. Not by much but I notice it.

My guess would be that this vette has been in a fender bender. The body parts repaired and probably reinstalled by the original owner to save some $$. A competent body shop with a FSM should be able to align the parts if the underlying supports strips are not bent.
Also note if you park our cars on any type of a slant or uneven surface you will see different looking gaps than otherwise.
