Exclamation My CF Hood whacked into my sunroof. Hinges Stuck, HELP

just monday, i pulled a dbs (dumbb!tchsyndrom) move and forgot to lock in my carbon fiber hood, was on a windy bridge and yea you can guess the rest. i noticed my hood start to vibrate.

"OHHH SSH!!!!!!!!TT!!!!"

5 seconds later, carbon fiber came up and over 65mph and the only time my sunroof was closed drivin on this bridge, moon roof cover back and black glass shattered all over me and the interior, got some cuts on my neck and forearm, was like,

"WTF?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?" (times font 1000 and yea pissed)

so now, sunroofless and hood lodged in, got a norcal g35 meet this sun in fairfield (search for it if ya havent signed up yet)...

need a lil help:

the best way to hammer the hinges at least back into functional order, some pics would help, and i'll get em up too.

any online junk yeard for a used 03 sunroof.

mad thx yalls,

randy

What a nightmare! How the hell did you drive off the bridge and to where ever it was you were going with a popped & lodged hood?
There's a lot of auto recycle spots in Rancho Codrova that may have your sunroof. Call the nissan/infiniti dealer to see if perhaps you can use another nissan/infinit roof of the coupe or altimia etc...?

No don't blame texting cause that's not way it's done. Phone texting is more like "ne1 coming l8 2nite?". lol If you don't know much about norcal/frisco, most of the people there think they're ghetto and try to talk stupid like that.

if you have t9 mode on your phone..everything is spelled out perfectly ...

But reguarding the hood thing, it reminds me of Tommy Boy haha.
" You can't close the hood to good if you dont take the oil can out!"

-hope you get it fixed.

If you noticed your hood vibrating, why didn't you slow down/pull over?

Buy new hinges from the dealer, I wouldn't use them anymore if they're all twisted/bent.
