Im trying to figure out the best way to go about this and I've searched but to no avail. My hood, I'm sure like everybodys, has separated from its inner frame or "skeleton" for lack of a better term. I was wondering what anyone has done to fix this? It does seem to make a difference with it being separated as the hood flexes quite a bit in the wind and makes noise.

All mine are that way. I haven't ever fixed them or remember anyone bringing it up here.
I think good glue would do it but you would need some sort of de-greaser first.

I think when new that had some kind of a spray foam adhesive or something that has rotted away over the years.

I'm sure 3M has something. Stop by a body shop and ask them if they can point you in the right direction.
