Really? Me too
Factory hood 1998-2003 is Aluminum not fiberglass
Fiberglass doesnt dent, it just cracks and flakes off. Aluminum is pretty soft and dents easily.

Yea I remember that from a "how tall are you" thread a long while back
Ah, I see. I just knew that the magnets the insurance adjuster was trying to put on all the dents wouldn't stick.
So I just assumed fiberglass. I did kinda wonder once how fiberglass would dent like that. But then I lost my train of thought on the way to grab another beer.

White is a relatively easy color to hide swirl marks. So is my Arizona Beige. It's all how OCD you are. I took mine to Lumadar for a detail back in February - I thought it looked fairly decent but he took one look and broke out the M105, his rotary, and purple wool pad........
He does INCREDIBLE work - he has my business once a year as long as he's still doing detailing.

Well I bought some Turtle wax "bug and tar remover" and went to work on that. Then I clayed the whole thing, used the meg's cleaning wax, then waxed over the whole thing again with Megs paste wax.
Oh and cleaned the windows with stoners invisible glass.
Here she is. Now I know how many paint chips I have in it so I guess soon enough I'll try to fix those. I bought some touch up paint also but didn't tackle that yet.
Oh yea I used a little cleaner wax on the wheels too. I need to put a coat of paste wax on them. I think I'll do that with them off. I need to rotate the tires anyway.
Thanks for the help guy's!

kinda off topic though but after reading and seeign that the bed sides are fiberglass, how can a dent or crease if you would call it be removed. i have a crease kind of thing right under my 4x4 decal in the rear. tried tappin it out from underneath but it pops right back in. any help?
