hey rick, keep the racing at the track haha, glad to see your ok and the car i think is telling you to get an sd or f1 hood.

i agree...

x2, it would look really good ... they are going to replace the hood anyways, if i was you get quotes and get the ins money they would give you or see what they are going to pay out then you can spend that money on a set of new headlights and a f1 hood and you still might even have some left over to paint the hood. getting parts from a body shop is so spendy. and make shure you have talked to someone about what bodyshop you went to, yes i might look good when it leaves but how does it look a half a year later

I'll ask. I doubt they'd bite on it, but maybe, just maybe. honestly, I think Im gonna wait for the SpyderAuto projector feedback to buy any headlights. I may lose out on the group buy discount, but at least Id know about workmanship on the product. The hood...hmmm, yummy...

where can I go to get a close estimate on how much the OE hood is? window shopping and contrasting, ya know?

hey rick i could send you my hood free shipping if you pick me up an f1!!!!

lol, yeah, Alex, keep holdin yer breath, dude.

I just came back from lookin at WBS and PFYC. 500-700 USD for hoods? Wow. Tell me that OE hoods are like a grand. Please.

the reason after market are more is because they are made of fiberglass, our oe hoods are steel. im actual looking at getting the mpd f1 hood, its a combo of steel base hood with fiberglass on top.... oh its also almost 900

if GMperformanceparts.com is to be believed, OE hoods are only 300. I doubt Progressive will let me get an aftermarket hood, and have it painted on that one claim. Grr. eh, oh well, Colleen is sexy without the gimmicks.

I also had my car search from my K9 buddy and his dog. It did stop at my drivers door, but that was a hickup. Thank goodnees. But I have had the car all apart and didn't find anymore money nor did I find any drugs. After finding $800 cash in the trunk, I figure I get it sniffed out!!!

Hey Rick, why don't you get ahold of the crumpled one after you get her fixed and tool around with it. Try some custom stuff on that. Did you think of that?

hmmm...interesting suggestion. I'll ask Progressive and the shop about it. again, I doubt they'll allow it, but you never can tell.

You rang?

LOL, oh lord, you're horrible, dude.

If you want aftermarket you can pay the diff between the estimated cost of oem and the part you want.

...and it shouldn't be a problem if you want the damaged parts back. I've gone and taken the emblem off my old wrecked bumper before. Wish I had done it the first time too.

Call the dealership, the OEM hoods are ridiculously overpriced, get the estimate from there.

Sorry about the car man
