Mine closes alright. Just make sure nuthins blocking it, put your hand on top of the hood where the latch is, and put a decent amount of pressure on it till it latches

could be your hood bump stops. those little black rubber inserts that just screw on. take those off and then try.

Yeah, you will want to close it like that, slam it and you might crack it

Yeah I was worried about how hard I had to push it down at first. I was thinking it might crack when It was real cold out. But I made it through this winter fine and its been fine since i've had it.
