WTB: Mint PW Hood

KyleBucket · 03-11-2011, 09:34 PM

Just seeing what's out there. I'm curious whether it'd be cheaper to buy a new hood or get the fuckin' thing repainted cause the guy who owned it before me let bird **** sit on it!

Get a hold of me if you have a Pearl White hood

Thanks!

shipping would be a pain esp if they bend it at all. where are you located may help find someone local.

The Jersey, Delaware area. There isn't much around here as far as local wise.. that's where I envy Cali. As of right now, it's scheduled to be fixed, but I was just looking to see if buying a new hood entirely is cheaper.

painting the hood shoudnt be more than 400 unless the shop is bending you over... but I could be wrong, I am lucky enough to have an extremely good body shop that takes care of me very well.. I just had my door blended into my fender to fix a key mark done for 450... came out absolutely perfect... PW as well..

did you try going to a detailer to see if he could get it out ? chances are its just in the clear and may be able to come out with the right product.

well, unfortunately, I can't tell exactly how much it is because it's getting fixed along with a couple other things (front bumper repaint, 3 scratches) so I can't tell specifically. I wish this wasn't 3-stage paint. It's whats making everything a pain/expensive.

Nismos do not have a different hood than a regular Z, so don't count them out

Thought so, but when I called about clear bra information this morning they told me they did.. I knew i was right.

Who told you that, the dealership? If so they don't know ****, like every other dealership, lol
