S=I/Y
Y=479.129/2
=239.5645mm
I=2.09*10^8m^4
S=(2.09*10^8)/239.5645=87.241*10^6 mm^4

S=I/Y
Y=479.129/2
=239.5645mm
I=2.486*10^8m^4
S=(2.486*10^7)/239.5645=103.771mm^4
Conclusion
So decreasing the distance between the 2 panels leads to increment in section modulus, so resistance to bending also increases, the strength of the hood also increases
