How bad is the bent one? You possibly could remove the hinge and heat it up with a Oxy/Acel torch and straighten it. Even a Bernzomatic brazing set will get it hot enough to be malleable.

Our hinges are different. We make a billet hinge that was used on the LeMans cars for the split trunk. I think Factory Five uses the same hinge (although FF uses it on the top of the trunk lid instead of the bottom like the LeMans car).

I was wondering if the Backdraft was the same. So it appears our LeMans trunk hinges will not work. Bummer

Yea was thinking that too , may even just make a fixture to make some, it is flat iron with spacers is all it is Just like to have a backup plan in case it goes south when i heat them.
