Ok I had another hour to work on this today I think I about got it. I can not adjust for the height difference near the headlights yet until I have my headlights back, and my new hood on.
For those of you that were possibly wondering what I meant when I said the top right corner bracket was to thick here is a picture of what it is.
This was causing it to stick out about a quarter of an inch past the body line (pictured above in a previous post), I simply used a cutting wheel to shave off about a 1/4 inch or half of the thickness of the piece.
It still seems to be plenty ridgid as well.
Here are a couple more photos of how well it lines up now.
So everything is coming along well just need a solid day to work on everything to show some real progress.
Here is a teaser of the new hood
