    How bad is it? I mean unless you just bashed it into a million pieces I don't see why you couldn't glue it back together, right?

    Sorry about your grill. Things like that happen all the time. I had a perfectly straight,rust free hood propped up in our garage. I wasn't happy about where the hood was sitting, but got busy and didn't move it. Sure enough, a gust of wind blew through the garage and down went the hood. Now I have a perfectly rust free hood with a dent in the middle of it. :(

    Sorry to hear about your grill man. I was working on my hood for the better part of the day getting a couple of dents smoothed out. Well, between that and a rear quarter panel. Good luck on getting it back together.
