Hi All,
I have just been quoted 335 pounds inc VAT and shipping for a replacement hood and targa panel trim from Carhood Warehouse. Does this sound OK? My feeling is that it isn't too bad, but would welcome other thoughts. Obviously this doesn't include fitting, I spoke to a company headed by Sean Smith in Newtonmore about that.

It sounds fairly reasonable to me, but you might be able to get one second hand from somewhere. You occasionally see cars being broken on eBay, but I guess it all depends on the condition of the hood/panels.

Having said that, I've also heard that panels from one car won't necessarily fit another car, so this might not be a particularly good suggestion! As you were... smile

Cheers. It sounded OK to me, but with no frame of reference I thought it wise to ask.
