Strut bar = bent hood :(
I installed a strut bar on my 2007 GT today. My hood does not close properly now. Any suggestions, other than just take it off? I love the way it looks but it is not worth it if it warps my hood

As far as the brand, I do not know. A man took it off his 2007 and sold it to me. I still have the stock 2007 hood with the stock hood scoop. There does not appear to ba an indention in the hood for the STB.
The only possible thing I can think of is that it is a 2010 STB. They are taller and fit under the power dome hood but not a 05-09 hood. Maybe he had it under a cowl hood or something, or who knows, but a picture would sure help to solve it.
Is it silver?

It is black. Supposedly came off a 2007 Shelby.
What type of hood do you have now? Or are you just saying that the stock hood is still installed?
It very well could be the older style hood insulation as the newer version that started being used in 07 has a defined indent for the STB. I can take a picture of mine if it would help.
