hmm...looking down at the intake from the front, i think you need to move the intake forward and to the right. picture #3 has a gap between the snorkel and the engine bay...shouldn't be a gap.

mine fit fine with no issues. First installed it touched the hood, but I adjusted the piece you are referring to by pushing it down before tightening it down. You can try adjusting the hood latch a little bit also, but I didn't really adjust that much.

The biggest difference finally came when I adjusted the hood rubber stops. I raised them up on both sides to the highest they could go. (they are the two roundish rubber pieces on both sides under the hood near the radiator).

After that it closed perfect. You should also know that you can't use the factory hood prop, and that you will not be able to slam the hood shut anymore. You have to place it down on the latch and push it shut.
