Re: bump truck hood swap
If I remember right they'll bolt to the hinges, but the latch setup is very different.

Re: bump truck hood swap
The bump's hood latching mechanism is on the hood and the latching rod is in the valance. The dent's mechanism is in the valance and the rod is on the hood. I think there's a little more to it than that, according to some threads I found.
