Oem hood

They're aluminum right? Has anyone ever stripped the paint and polished the aluminum?

So it reflects sun into drivers eyes with blinding intensity?

Depends on the finish, I reckon it wouldn't reflect or blind anyone more than a freshly waxed and painted car.

Painting the hood flat black would work better for me. Cuts reflections to a minimum.
