I got in a small accident (rear ended a cherokee at 5 mph last fall) and now that the weather is getting decent I want to get it looking good again for spring. Can this be repaired? I already figured I would neeed a new fender and paint, and probably passenger headlight. The hood is mostly scratched on the surface, but does have maybe 4-6 hairline cracks that go down to the carbon fiber. is there anyway this can be fixed, or am I better of buying a new hood. if I do get a new hood what companies or sites should I go through to get a decent quality hood (perfect weave) for less than $700 shipped? the hood you see in the pic was actually a replacement because the one I received from Andy's auto sport was *** quality.

 

not sure if that can be repair if it went down to the fibers. you might check with a local hot rod shop. ive found that the older guys that work at hot rod shops know alot of tricks. good luck.

 

ouch

 

composites fab may have some avalible in the near future, and there hoods are perfect

He doesn't want to buy another one, he wants to fix it . To the OP I dont think that can be fixed, but try taking it to some shops and see if they can do anything.

 

i will buy one if necessary but if it can be fixed for cheaper and I don't have to go through the hassle of finding a good hood, then I'd rather go that route

 

I was just giving options.....people will bite off your head if they don't understand.....and remember you suck @ life

 

Take it to a Body Shop, and have them paint it the Color of your Car. the Carbon Fiber is Ricey. Its not clean. You did such a good job with the JDM Front, paint it and your Car Will Be Juice!!!
Keep it Clean and Rice Free!

show a more upclose detailed pic, and ill be able to tell u

 

Ive tried photoshopping the hood the color of my car, but I don't think i would like it. I also tried to see how it would look with the sidse painted (see pic below). It seems to fit the car better, but still not a good choice I don't think.

 

i dont know man...but that blows
