so i got up early saturday morning so i could get a dent in my hood fixed... So i went to the bank to withdraw some money and on the way back not a mile away from my house, some lady pulls out without looking and i slam on my brakes but couldnt stop in time this was in the middle of the intersection. I have a police report and everything and my insurance says that she is responsible which she was... so my question is this: My front bumper is scratched really bad but no dents or anything major and my hood is missaligned.. so if they have to replace the hood under her insurance is there any way i can get a WS6 hood out of this? Maybe if i pay the difference?

-thanks

Yes, you can get whatever you want so long as you pay the difference.

I was in an accident that I was at fault for when I was 18, my insurance gave me the replacement value of $150 for the hood...which I applied towards a 3in fiberglass cowl for my RS. Basically you're going to get a discount on the hood and free paint out of the deal, not bad!

Contact your agent or your claim advisor and get it all sorted out, they may even cover it all since you just want another stock hood and they will be grabbing a junkyard part anywars(unless you have specific endorsments on your policy for new parts).
