Finally started back at the project this past week after an 8 month break. I had no luck in finding a better hood, so I decided it's time to repair the one I have.

Along with the hail damage, the glue between the two layers had also let go. Plus it had two of the welded nuts broke off inside the hood. Plus it had surface rust and a mouse nest inside that I just couldn't seem to completely get rid of.

The only way to really take care of all these issues was to drill out the spot welds and get inside.
