Darth SpecB Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 The other day my passenger side headlight went out so I decided to trouble shoot on the spot. All of a sudden a gust of wind blew my hood up nearly cracking my windshield. Thankfully that didn't happen but the corners of my hood were bent. Here's the extent of the damage. Im pretty sad about it. What do you guys think I should do? Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sshole Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 Happened to me. If you have comprehensive and other than collision damage coverage, you can get insurance to pay for it. May or may not be worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GearJamr Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 All depends on how much to want to spend to fix it. At the extreme end, a carbon fiber hood to replace it. At the cheap end, bend it back with a little heat applied to the underside (non painted). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
