If it is a Cincinnati Composite hood then you are in for lots of trouble. Do you know the reason they sold it?

Wells thats a Cinci Hood. I can tell the hack saw blade cuts on the edge. Your better off filling the holes for the pins and start over for your car. Start cutting on the edges and corners to get it to fit then worry about the pin locations
