I let my dad borrow my car during halloween trunk or treat. Apparently he didnt close the front hood well enough. Any suggestions or estimates on what it might cost to repair? What techniques might be used? I know i already need a front hood as it is warped in multiple places. Havent even had time to inspect the hinges.
