Ruffles Hood

So, a bird took out my FX2 grille. So I replaced with classic horizontal billet.I don't know if:
1) the grille has the hood torqued in an odd way or
2) the fact I drove 70+ mph with it partially latched ()!
But, now I have large dents or waves in my hood. @ front, middle, and towards the cowl.
I'd apprecciate any suggestions as to what could cause this or more importantly, how to correct it. Thanks guys.

your grill should have no play in that since i think there is two screws and rest are clip things. Ide deffinetly say you driving with hook not latched all the way, your lucky it didnt flip up on ya.

That's more what I was thinking. They sure "dance" @ 80mph. I was thinking of the paintless dent repair. They're large, shallow dents. Looks like an older car that has the "coffee can" areas. I noticed this the next day after the unlatched incident.
