i am wondering if my hood was warped with the dent...
I was wondering the same thing. Is there a way to wrap a ratchet strap around it and 'pull it in' a little just to see how and where that changes things? Or is there anything that looks like it shifted underneath (or can be adjusted) where the support braces run?
I don't know the AD hoods so this is just shooting in the dark.
Like that Blue a lot by the way!
