Default Dent in hood

This past summer while driving, something smacked the hood of my Z and left a little but noticable dent. I know that the hood is aluminum and so i was wondering how the dent could be removed? Thanks

Depending where it is, I would recomend purchasing the stillen supercharger kit. With any luck, the dent is near the location where they need to modify your hood.

He wants the dent fixed, not a $5K+ supercharger.

how the dent could be removed?


Check with the dealer and find out who takes the dents out of their used cars. I had a tree limb put three dents on the hood last year. The salesman I deal with said bring it by the day the dent man was scheduled. He used a variety of tolls to removed the dent from underneath so that it looks like new. Cost was about $50 dollars and took about 45 minutes.

Some of us just like to take the "scenic route" to solve problems
