I told you it was a weird color but notice from the deer the grill doesnt meet the hood right like it does on the drivers side

Well, open up that hood and take a good long look at the grill and the grill supports. It should be easily evident what your problem really is.

In my case ('97) the plastic mounting tab on he grill and the metal screw clip were both broken. The metal clip was easily obtained in a HELP! package from Advance, but the new grill had to be ordered from gmpartdirect. com for the princely sum of $167.

The grill supports can be easily obtained from a junkyard, sometimes for free.

Make sure the hood catch in the hood is screwed tight to the hood. If they aren't tight, the hood will still align to open and close, but the catch will rattle.
