Determine the exact center of the hole

Determine the exact diameter you need.

Obtain and piece of conduit with outside diameter the size of the hole you want.

Cut, drill or saw the hole through the hood/sheet metal the diamter of the conduit.

Slide the conduit through the hole leaving the amount above the hood/sheet metal you want.

Weld in place.

Trim off excess from under hood/sheet metal.

Grind weld smooth.

Fill area with high quality body filler and sand to shape.
