hmm sometimes they can't fix a hood properly, great time to go for a CF hood if you like them.

If you have their insurance paying insist on a new hood.

I SMELL CARBON FIBER IN THE AIR!! haha well......if u have a dent AND a scraped paint, you'll need metal work and paint job so thats gon cost you as much as a cf hood. So, go for a cf hood. thas what i would do atleast.

Vote #3 for Cf Hood~

It is worth a try and will probably come out to be cheaper in the end than a new hood and paint like F23A4_AcCoRdude said

i had my hood and rad. support bent by a rav4 that tried to park in front of me on a hill..... got a cf for free

if you have to pay out of pocket, just buy a used hood (~$50-80) and get it painted to match your car (~$200) if you cant afford a decent cf hood.
