I enlarged the hood photos and surprisingly the damage is not too severe , it can be properly repaired. The metal that is bonded into the hood needs to be reset in place and is the most difficult thing to do, ( 3M Panel Bond adhesive is stronger than fiberglass ) but can be done as long as the repair shop have the car too.. All hoods needs to be fit to the actual car that being some taken off the outer edges to get the correct 3/16 gap and your hood already has that fit. IMHO I would take the car and hood to a local shop this way it will fit correctly when done. With the repair, paint etc . expect $650 to $900. P' Msg. me if you have questions.
