this is my point, the cowl is wavy, looked good when it was white but after sanding and applying primer you can see the waves.

mid year hoods
Is it me or are all the factory hoods poor quality? I had the 77 and now the 78 and both factory hoods are very wavy. I am doing the body work and after I block sanded the hood especially on the cowl it is very distorted (un even) I have filled and sanded and its getting better but I was wondering is this normal or what?
