It would probably be easier to see if the problem could be cured if you took pictures of it connected to the car as best you can get it.

You may want to not connect the hood struts at all to fit it (if they can be connected). Stock hood struts are very strong as they are meant to hold up the stock steel hoods, but a light fiberglass hood can be bent out of shape by them.

I have also heard that fiberglass hoods can change shape during dramatic changes in temperature.
