SC400 = killer
reach under there and pop that sucker back out. The only metal part you should encounter that would hinder restoring it's shape will be the part holding the hood rubber seal to the top in front of the radiator and it's pretty flimsy so not a big deal.
pull rubber seal off, remove bolts underneath.

It is repairable-- it just depends on what actual material it is as to how it needs to be repaired.. I think it's a stiff urethane-- which can be burned back together, and that works much better than glue--
Once you've burned/melted it back together, you can put a few layers of fiberglass behind it for strength-- sand it right and noone will ever know.
