My hood got ran over.. (Pics)

I had the hood laying there for not even a day and it was a perfectly good hood and someone ran it over. I have pictures, how would I go about fixing this?

poor guy, theres alot of strucher on the lip of the hood so if thats all mangled up it would be nearly imposabile to try and fix and it might not ever sit right

Where did you lay it that it was run over??? It looks like it's beyond what is a reasonable effort to repair when you can get a replacement in good condition for cheap either at a junkyard or on the classifieds here.

Yea i agree with that statement, if you were close to NH i would sell you my old hood cheap, cant seem to get rid of a regular non-louvered hood these days. Just go rip one from the yard, but dont let them screw you on the price. They will think its a hood and should cost big money when in reality its not. Dont leave your hood lying on the ground next time! lol Prop that sucker up against a wall lol.

Re: My hood got ran over.. (Pics)

I normally have a lot of people at my house and thats where the turnaround spot use to be and my blazer is there and my parts car. I just took that hood off, it wasn't even a full day. I measured how long the tread mark is and drew the tred pattern and I am going to find out who it is! lol
