If you could mold 2 humps in the hood like that it may work to body drop...But still a good bit of fabrication

not really go to a yard buy an eclipse hood or any hood with a bubble and cut the bubble out with a nibbler or air shears cut aporximatly the same size holes in the hood weld fiber glass primer paint
