Denali rusting hood

[easterr]

My Denali's hood has an area of rust under the hood between the hood panel and a support, which has now come though the top side of the hood. Googled it and not too common apparently. Has anyone had this issue and repaired without replacing the hood? Thanks in advance.

Haha, knew that was coming. I am hoping to not spend a lot on this fix (although not likely) bc I need a front diff and likely brake lines soon.

I had the same problem and had it fixed. Rust came back 3 years later. Replace the hood. Just got done putting a new hood on and getting it painted. I think an aftermarket hood is $300

Thanks. I was hoping for another soluition, but I realize once the rust starts it's hard to stop.
