Sorry Ray, sure screwed that up. I'm amazed I even got the pictures to post though. First pic is passenger side underside of hood just above headlight, second pic is drivers side just under leading edge above headlight, third pic is same as second different angle, fourth is top, passenger side. Damage is too extensive for a home repair like you did on your car I think, although... I am thinking about it. I would sure appreciate your opinion or any other members.
Thanks Lance |

I’d say it’s the opportune time for an aftermarket hood |

Welcome aboard. Stuff like this sucks no doubt. This is where I would take the opportunity, and look into an aftermarket hood that is fibreglass like Cervini. Their fit, and finish is top notch, and they come gel coated ready to paint. There is no “corrosion” in fibreglass, which equals a long term happiness. :D Thanks L |
Cervini hoods are by far the best in strength, finish, and fit when it comes to fibreglass. Also the design of their hood latching is designed very well. Lots of people run Cervini hoods without hood pins, they will recommend it though. That would be up to you. |

Glad to hear things worked out for you.
Just thinking out loud here, the problem likely comes from the abuse (road debris etc) the front edge of the hood takes. Do you think a protective clear wrap would help any? I know a lot of guys on the US forums put that stuff on their GT350's because of all the rocks the tires pick up and throw but they do the front ends as well. Just a thought. |
