Hood latch delete pictures/ideas

Hellooooooooo FABO!
I am looking to delete the skull scraper from my hood. Any ideas?
I do have hood pins, is that enough?

Bonus......having a hood release inside the car.

I am am thick skulled and hard headed but I tire of the beatings.



This is not a numbers build although I would like it to be hidden.

B body one is pictured, but you all know what Im talkin about.

Thank you!!
