    Need help finding a hood!

    This morning on my way to work some guy who was parked on the right side of the street tried to do a u-turn right in front of me.....he didn't make it.....even though I hit my brakes....my right front corner hit him deadcenter in hir rear left rim....meanwhile my hood's front edge hit the the other car's edge of the wheel well....so as a result...I got a fucked up hood :cry: ....the right fender has a little dent which is fixable...... :evil:

    Now, the insurance (Progressive) gave me an estimate that included replacing the bumpercover which is fine.....but listed the fender and the "HOOD" as repairable........I mean... this thing has a creese which makes visible gap the opposite side.....com'on......

    Anybody know where I can get a regular aftermarket hood or does anybody know if there's not much of a difference between a regular hood and a C/F hood? :?:

    What the heck...why isn't the other guy's insurance fixing it for you? A hood is never "repairable" btw...once it's been compromised it's gone. I learned that when my hood had the tiniest little crumple, and you can still see a pic of it at my Yahoo pic site. Most people never notice it until I tell them it's there, and yet the body shops said it couldn't be repaired, only replaced.
