Bullet: .10 - .50 $ [sm=shootshoot.gif]

Lesson learned to never touch another mans car without his ok: priceless

Wrap brother in microfiber as not to scratch car, lay brother across back of hood and pound with sledge hammer until hood is in alignment.

I just got home from the body shop and they told me maybe 2 hours of labor and that it would be simple.
Knowing that, I think I might have wasted a bullet. No biggie though, I just winged him.
Don't feel bad......bullets are cheap..............and he'll live.[8D]

A bullet is aterrible thing to waste. The microfiber wrap idea would be too messy. But does he have a car?? I would accidently leave a large steel funnel under the hood and slam it a few times after you topped off his oil for him.

Are you serious, they really went to steel hoods in 06? I feel jilted or something. And here I am thinking I have an aluminum hood. I think it is magnet time. More dealer and magazine lies.

Hoods were changed to steel in 06

I never heard this; I think the '06 brochure says otherwise? Is there a source to verify this info? I suppose I could just go outside with a magnet and see....but....I'M STILL WAITING FOR MY CAR TO ARRIVE (maybe thursday)

Took off the hood to put on the aftermarket one just a few weeks ago. 2006 hoods are definitely aluminum - it weighs less than the fiberglass hood!
