I know exactly what you mean by the alignment stopper. Maybe find an aluminum latch covers for the stock latch?Im not sure how to explain what I have, maybe my 2020 is different. My latches have a rest built in that the hood comes down on. I have tried several aftermarket brands like you suggested and I couldn't get it to be solid. Ill post my picture again and circle what Im asking. Yes, I can tighten yhe latch but its warping the hood and the fender to hood gap is way off. The hood is also resting metal to metal on the header.

I couldn't be happier with my Combat Offroad hood pins, top of the line.I am looking for some proper aftermarket hood latches for my 2020 JT. Have tried the usual sources that say JK, JL and JT are the same but they are not. Our JTs and assume JL has a hood "rest" built in. This rest give something for the latch to tension too. The several brands I have tried did not have the rest and there was no good way to get a good "latch" without distorting the hood down. Anyone else find something other than stock, mine are getting chewed up by varmits, lol.

Whoa sorry for the slight derail but what hood scoops are those?

These are from Quake LED

When I was installing them and hiding all the wiring under the sound barrier, I used a hole saw and so they could also vent into the engine compartment. Been running them for over 2 years and love them. Wired them into the Aux switches. These also tie into the turn signals.
