Hood not locking

I installed the ACC full size preforated header plate and after install the hood would not lock. It catches but it will not lock. I took it off just to make sure it was not the plenum cover I also put on but the hood will latch after I remove the header plate. Gonna try the install again. Any ideas?? here is a picture - not that great a pic...

Sounds like the latch on the radiator support needs to be moved up slightly

Can I do that without dismantling a lot of stuff?

Looked at mine and can see the 2 bolts. But the black cover looks like it would have to come off to make it easier to do.

Removed the original rubber trim piece and reinstalled and hood now latches. Removing the rubber trim is not in the instructions.
