Slamming hood or putting it down gently?

How do you close your hood?

I let it down gently, then a little push to lock it in.

Just drop it about a foot above the latch. Pushing will dent the thin sheet metal.

Lower it to about a foot off the lock then drop. Hoods nowadays are built from thin sheet metal and a misplaced hand pushing down the hood might dent it.

Good to know! I learned something useful today :bowako:

Same thing here, I just drop it. Newer cars are so thin, You can actually "feel" it whenever​ you wipe it clean. Older cars are thicker, so are heavier.

Sometimes I say, I like the older ones. Not just thicker metals, thicker paints too.
