You could countersink the holes on the latch to get the bolts lower.. and go with buttonhead fasteners.

The DSE closeout works best with the stock hood latch and even then (with buttonhead bolts) it's real close. in fact my stock latch with buttons just BARELY touch the DSE part.

I don't know how you could modify the DSE part and still have it look good, but I suppose anything is possible when it comes to metal working.
