How would you guys go about fixing this, bothers me a lot and I feel like it’d fly up at any moment and smack the windscreen. She’s in rough shape cosmetically but luckily it is all surface rust, it was stored in a dry Indiana warehouse for years.

Poorly fitting hood or not, that's a cool looking car. Love the VW style steels. Edit: WELCOME to the World! |

Thank you sir, I like them too! Hope to get them with a coat of primer and gloss black soon:) To my eye it looks like the fit starts to go wrong right about where the crack/tear/whatever is going on with the bumper top is located. Check if the lid seal channel has been pushed back and up so that the lid can not close enough. |
