Unfortunately, this has happened to me, and without losing all
hope in this matter, Chris is right, the hood bolts can be removed from
the grill opening.
I tried and successfully removed the hood hinge bolts, only to find
that I still could not get the striker out of the latch, nor could I
reach any
of the hardware from beneath the half opened hood.
Ultimately, I had to resort to using a prybar to pop the striker from
the latch.
Since the hood was known to pop on its own from time to time anyhow,
I was able to do so with only minor scratching, and no dents.
I hope you fair as well.
