Answer 1

You could try to override the failedAuthorization method since that is what gets called on failed authorization. You can throw an HttpResponseException and set your own response on it:

use Illuminate\Http\Exceptions\HttpResponseException;

protected function failedAuthorization()
{
    throw new HttpResponseException($this->forbiddenResponse());
}
