I began swapping out my old stock headlights for JDM style projectors. when i tried to close my hood, it looks as if the hood is hitting the headlights. I ordered the lights from advancedJDMparts.com
here is a link to what i bought, if anyone has had this issue please help.

That's wierd. I bought TYC brand projectors for my old Accord, and they fit absolutely perfectly. Could you maybe describe the problem some more or take a few pictures?

Oh, and FYI, those headlights really aren't "JDM" in any way. All these companies just label their shit as JDM so people will buy it. Real JDM for your car would just be the factory Stanleys, and maybe some orange "Vision-style" corners to jazz them up a bit.
