    You're welcome for the write-up! Maybe this could help someone.

    Sounds like they didn't get the edge of the hood over the clip(s) on one side. The sides sit over the clips in a channel like. That's the only thing I can think of. Aligning wasn't very difficult. I just took my time and made sure everything was straight before I tighten the screws.

    What radiator work did you have done? Did you have your radiator replaced? If so, what was the cost?
    Thanks!

    I drove through deep muddy water and the radiators got covered with mud. As a result, we needed to remove them in order to clean the back side and the fans.

    Insurance covered the costs. I also had to have other work done so I’m not sure
    About the labor costs for the radiator cleaning.
