Default Cowl vent area repair?

The person I bought my 93 LX from had a 3 inch cowl hood on the car and did not pin it down...... Needless to say it cam up on him..
It dented the top slightly but not bad... But hte worst part is the area around the cowl vent....... Has anyone ever repaired these? Any idea on
the cost to do the repair? I was told that its a pretty simple repair small porta power. Any ideas or help would be great...


Thanks

William

Default RE: Cowl vent area repair?

some kids jumped up and down on mine before I bought it and it was all caved in..I used a stud gun that welds studs on and a special end on a slap hammer to grab on to studs and spent countless hours pulling it all back out and bondo to smooth it over and you'll need a die grinder to grind ends of welded on studs flat
