WTB: OEM GD3 Hood

I was driving on the freeway and a metal bar came out from under a car and hit my hood. So, I now need a new hood. Looking for an 07-08 hood. Preferably in Orange Blaze metallic.

Talking Think about were the best $ would B spent

Hey Kyle,
How big is the dent? Why not use a bodyshop to repair it. After the 250 for the hood and 50 S/H, and it will still need to be painted 150 your looking at 450.
Take it to a production shop that handles a lot of repairs ( will match the paint) and has good techs that work there, and 150 to 300 your hoods fixxed and you save some $$.
Stay away from the small shops that don't have much going on the reason they don't have a back log of work will be obvious if you let touch your car!
Good Luck and if ya can send me a pic of the hood w/damage.
Mike

There are multiple dents on the hood and one is pretty deep. I will try to post pictures of it soon. I have one reputable shop that can get a replacement hood and have it painted for $300 and I probably will go with that as that is the cheapest price I have found. If anyone is local to socal and has a new or like new hood, I might consider it.

It's a little hard to see from the pictures but there is one deep gash towards the bottom right and multiple surface dents towards the top. The paint is damaged so PDR isn't an option.

Ya Kyle I'd just take it to a bodyshop and if they say that they are capable of fixing it do it. It should be under the 300 for just the hood repair. Most of the lower dent will be dolly and hammerd out with very little filler. If your hood was bent to were the body lines didn't line up then it would be asta la vista old hood hello C.F. hood.
But it's not me .... it's your call Good Luck
Just my 2 cents worth.
