New Hood for the TA! So about a week ago I came across a Sunco Raptor hood for sale in the classifieds that got posted, within a few minutes of his listing I Pm'ed him trying to get info/pictures/ect.
About an hour or so later he had many people interested locally and on the forums, seeing as iv'e been looking for either a Raptor or a OEM replacement since my accident
I had to jump on this.
678.00 Out the door for a MINT condition Sunco Raptor Hood!
Only took Greyhound to ship from KY to TX 3 days as well. (Thanks again domestic!)
Considering OEM hoods are 1000.00 + as well as Raptor hoods from the website (shipped) I think i got an awesome deal to say the least.
Now its currently residing in my Living room till my car gets back from the body shop, A question to thoes anyone near San Antonio/New Braunfels that has/knows a reputable shop willing to do a kick-*** job repainting it to match the factory color of my bird (Black - WA8555 I think) And i don't mind prepping, as that is most of the work.
Thought i would ask before calling around, getting quotes, reading reviews, so on and so fourth. I know i'm going to have to pay a good price to get a good job done, and i'm perfectly fine with doing so.
Let me know what ya'll think of the hood! And any info regarding paint is greatly appreciated.

Lmao, tips for prepping for repaint, But that works just as well
Yeah it was only $100.10 for shipping with $800.00 insurance, only advice using them is pack the hell out of it cause it will get thrown around haha.
