This might be a dumb question, but can a aluminum hood be repainted without issue if it is in mint condition. I have heard once the aluminum corrodes and bubbles its not worth fixing but best to just replace the entire hood. I want to know if a mint aluminum hood can be repainted a different colour fine? Im guessing yah why not as long as its not corroded also.

Absolutely no reason why not.

I figured that, but also thought id ask and maybe get some feedback before I purchase this used hood to replace my 2011 corroded hood.

I have Kidagin's old hood on Ol Paint. It was a mint Race Red hood that is now a mint Windveil Blue hood.
