Looking 4 99.5 A4 Hood
 

car is a 99.5 a4 1.8T Red
Just got it recently and already got caught not paying attention and got in a minor accident. Minor is the key word it was quite a bullshit accident. Broke the grille slightly and dented it right on the curve so can't be bondo's or spooned out (so i've been told). Hit a Lexus SUV and it basically sat on the front of my hood. I'll post pics if anyone thinks it could be fixed rather than replaced.
Otherwise if anyone has an OEM site or a b5 (any b5 hood will fit?) hood for sale please reply. Car is red but i will respray if necessary. Live in LI NY if anyone knows a LI salvage yard / OEM part store. Grille has already been replaced.

d*** i need one too. tiny dent in mine when i bought it used, and repair shops want 400 to fix. almost the same price as to get a new one!

You can pick one up at the dealer for $350 or if you have an In at one they let yea have one for just under $300.... Theres always a salvage yard...

Looks like that could be repaired but would take alot of work, probable in your best intrest to find a new/used hood

my GF's father is a body guy and he said he couldn't do it but i thought i'd get some other opinions, I haven't been able to find any online sites selling OEM hoods all i found was Carbon Fiber, if its only a $300 part i guess i'll have to replace it, I figured it was going to run me $700-$800 plus spraying, but i guess $300 is doable.

Yea dude you can pick up a brand new hood for like $350 I got mine for $300 cuz i got an in at the dealer but most dealers should sell ya one for $350ish

while you're at the dealership pick up a headlight washer cap ;)

RE: Looking 4 99.5 A4 Hood
 

Looks like he's got a cap unless I'm missing something. Check www.shokan.com for parts. People were saying CF... why not CF and spray it?

IMO CF never seems to be as quality as OEM, unless its way way expensive, its just IMO though
