You may want to pay out of pocket considering your insurance will go up for 3 years 4 months.

Maybe have someone hold the hood release and then try lifting the hood, probably bent the catch so maybe you can get a screwdriver or something in there to try to move the release around a bit.

i tried to get in there with a screwdriver but it wont go between the hood and the latch. the hood is in the release position but the lever wont move enough to get the thing open. i took the bolt out of the latch mechanism but it didnt help, i also lost the bolt in the process so now i have to find that . i think that my full coverage will pay for towing so maybe i will have to do that. i thought about out of pocket but mines gonna be much more than my deductible and i dont know what his insurance is gonna say. he was in his work truck from ABC auto parts. i would love to cut it but i dont want to mess up with the insurance.

as far as the hood goes, check any shops around your area, and junk yards, aluminum is good, though I think your vert came with one stock, I know some did, which is where I got my nice light hood =)
