My hood came up while i was driving
So the metal piece between my hood and widow got crushed beyond repair, does anyone know what that piece is called or where i would be able to get it besides a junk yard?

yup, its a structurally important area of the car, much like the roof and rear quarter panels

I had that happen to me twice with my crappy old fiberglass hood. Fortunately, it happened again before I got it fixed from the first time. I found a donor car and cut the cowl out of it, took apart the front clip and welded the new cowl in place of the smashed one. I had to pull a few dents out of the edge of my roof, as well. Needless to say, I went back to a stock hood with the regular latch lol.

I've read a lot of threads about fiberglass hoods mysteriously flying up,(usually do to operator error) but this is the first I've heard of the cheaper fiberglass hoods flexing to the point where they flex they enough to unlatch themselves.
