Default Fiberglass cracking on hood

I finished the car in 2007, and now have 2 hair line cracks appearing on the hood. Booth on the same same side, one near the cowel, and the
2nd near the nose.

Any Idea of how or why this happened, and what the cure might be to fix once and for all. My other thought was to purchase a big block hood, because, I'm positive the cost to repair and repaint could go a long way towards a new hood. I don't do body work.

Thanks for any advice in advance.

This must be bodywork day. Check with the folks on the Paint/Body Forum under General Topics as well as here. There is a lot of talent there. Good luck.
