nose dip...

[wezeles]

as some of you can notice in the pics of my car the nose in the center top where it meets the hood has bubbled down a bit... now i heard you can pop it back out by applying heat like a hair dryer to it and pushing it up to straighten it up again? has anyone ever done this or know someone that has... i have a plastic heat gun at work i can steal when i need it... but i dont want to melt it or make it worse...is there a specific way you go about fixing it?

i have the same problem. Mine sags too.

alright well sence no one seems to know the fix i think i will be the test subject here and try it once it warms up... im just going to apply pressure from the back and heat the top to see if the bubble pops out... ill let you know how it goes...

what is it made out of? plastic or fiberglass? if its plastic it will probibly work if you get it to the right temp, but if its fiberglass it most likely just melt or catch on fire

ok to tell you the truth i have know idea lol, and just think i work at a fiberglass repair shop lol, if it is fiberglass... i will ask my uncle (owner of the shop) and see what he says

[wezeles]

no lol its plastic if it was fiberglass i would just fill it in with more fiber glass... by the looks of it its grade B polypropolene... so i just cant really heat it past 350... i work in plastics so i got that end covered..lol its just this plastic is older than me... so i have no idea how well its going to hold up or exactly what its made out of... this was before the world cared about saving itself and printed info on almost ever non-biodegradable part thats made...
