Fiberglass hood mods... crazy?

For those of you who may not be familiar with the term, "piano hinge," this is what it looks like. There are holes in both sides (but, not in this picture) for attachment to the two surfaces that are to be hinged.

With the pivot rod on the top side, it shouldn't be necessary to slot the holes; it will just pivot on the continuous rod.

This will have to be in two sections, each one about 18" wide, and 12" long, because as someone pointed out, this hood is NOT "flat." TWO "flaps; one on each side....

Thanks for that info; I'd never noticed.

The rear hood pins will be ahead of the flaps, of course.
