Alright I just got an 02 ss hood for my z28, but the hood has a small crack at the tip of the hood and one medium bout 3 inches on the inside of the hood where the air induction is. I've repaired fiberglass before but the hood is SMC and word is it is not the same type of repair. Does any one know if there is a kit and where I could get the kit for SMC repair. If anyone knows how to repair SMC camaro ss hoods, your help would be appreciated!

back from the archive I repaired the hood. I fixed it using all GM parts used to make the hood with three layers of fiberglass. Strong as hell and none the wiser! Needs a paint job now!!!!!!

I would do it for other people but it would cost some moola!!!!! Its just so time consuming cuz if you do it quick you might get bubbles in the repair or not build it up right. I was told by a body shop worker that he would fix it for $150 and $50 for the material and he was just going to repair the outside from what I understood just fill it. I cut a gap in crack and built it from the bottom up using 3 layers of fiberglass seriously stronger than other original parts of the hood and smooth as hell. I'm going to post before and after pictures later so subscribe to this thread. I'm also going to post myself for these types of repair but I don't know if I have to be a sponser or not???
