F150 hood is not a match. I think it's like a 1/2"-1" difference in hight.

I have the new Fiberwerx +2.5" Raptor fenders with OEM Raptor 6.5" bedsides coming next week. I know OEM fenders are raised almost 2" above hood so I will see with these fenders.

How much did the front and 6.5 bedsides run you? Those are probably my next mod.

theres no way to make them match man. If u know a badass metal guy he can stretch out that hood to make it close, and maybe finish it off with body filler, but that will probably cost more than a raptor hood. At the end of the day, no tips/tricks will help u line up rounder/higher fenders to a flatter/lower hood

I guess I'll have to learn. I don't like the Raptor hood, it's not the look I'm going for.

as said above, they do not match. I was going to do the same with my raptor suspension change when the time comes.... but thinking I might just do the fiberworx extended f150 fenders, instead of the raptor ones as, like you, i did not want the raptor hood or front bumper.
