im thinking of getting a 200 dollar (+240 for shipping) hood that has a lot of dents.
A guy who does cheap body work for me and says he can fix it and paint it for 100 but he's not too sure about working with aluminum. does anyone know if its really difficult to repair a badly dented GT4 hood? |

I was thinking about buying that one too until I saw the side angle. I've seen hoods with less damage that body shops refuse to repair, even as personal favors rather that just for insurance checks. If you could fix it yourself, I would definitely say buy it but since you have to pay somebody to fix it, I would hate to see buy it, get it here, and then your body guy won't touch it.
