The wifes 06 mustang has an aluminum hood. No accident damage but needed to be Repainted 2 times.
Not interested
Aluminum hoods on Mustangs and other pony cars started in the 80s and before.
The repainting thing is more and more common on steel and plastic/fiberglas hoods as well - it’s due to the ‘eco-friendly’ paints makers are forced to make, not the substructure the paint is put on.
