I need to vent

I can put a grill in it myself, it is held in with 5 plastic clips. The hood can be beaten back out with the proper tools or just replace it from a junk yard from a car with the same color on it. The entire car has stock/faded paint, so painting the hood only would be a waste.

To paint the entire car correctly and do it right would cost many thousands to have it done. I have family that could do it but it takes time and knowing my uncle he would take the car down to bare metal and work from a clean slate. LOL

I have seen too many peeling paint jobs from prep work not being done right. Thank you all for the support, all is ok now. We are safe and the car is ok, I just do not like the dents being there, but the body work and paint would cost more than the car is worth.
