Hey guys, i recently got a GT4 front end but the hood came badly dented. Is it worth fixing or should i just get another hood?
      What do you guys think? its really bad. I am fighting with the shipping company right now to claim the damages. |

Pshhh fix it!
Spend a week on it and see how it goes, then source another hood if you cant get it the way you want. Honestly would only cost you maybe $50 in material and your time. You'll have to prep another hood regardless. -------------------- current project: looking :(
