Default Question on aftermarket airbridge
After I close the hood it rubs. Any suggestions? Maybe lengthen the hood stop by the windshield a little bit to get a little clearance. Slide it further up or down? It rubs right where it bends over the radiator.

Thanks.

From that angle it looks like it is slanted upwards from the throttle body.Does it sit flat on the radiator cover?

I had the same problem with my aftermarket air bridge. All I did was shorten up the coupler between the bridge and throttle body by about an inch. HTH
