Hd hood!! Look!!!

[chistoso]

Nice! Thnx guys. He threw me off because he said it was an 00-03 2500 hood and I have only seen them on 01-02's. I am waiting to hear back on the price, he has mad GM front clips so I am hoping he will let it go for cheap....

Hey Chistoso, I went to the shop you suggested and they must have hooked you up cause they quoted me $800+ to paint(not install) a hood and install and pain my roll pan.......spendy! He did say the hoods from certifit.com are known to have a lot of fittament issues due to the fact the are chinese reproductions.....

Yeah, That's where it gets pricy, when they have to fit and install shit. How much for just painting the parts did they quote you? The guy I spoke with, his name is Lou.. I agree with the Certifit statement. I bought a fender for my K5 a couple of years ago and I had a hard time making it blend in with the hood and door and the steel was thinner than OEM. I ended up taking one from a wrecked truck which had a few dings and scratches and had it worked on. It was night and day how it all went together.

Hope you score that hood man..

if that is an OEM hood, you should be able to install and fit it yourself mang... it may take you some time but it'll will save you some bread

When you guys say the edges need trimming what do you mean? I take it it's not a direct fit?

Oh boy..... Scored the hood for $120 and paint for $280............ She should be ready Wed...... Pics will be posted.....

 

[chistoso]

Was that for paint on the rollpan too? Where?

 

[jmildoc]

NIIIICE I have a dent that I am going to claim on insurance... if I could only find a shop that could throw some paint on a hood at the same time for the price of FREE i would be all over it...

Naw, just the hood. Im gonna have Grunions fab up a way to swap out the roll pan and the normal bumper. I go to CA and CO often and I don't want to get a ticket everytime I leave the state......

It should be dope though, I talked to them and they said they could do it no problem. That is like #3 on my list right now.

HD Painted and installed......

Well boys, I got'er done! Today was pickup day and it went pretty good. The cost was $120 for hood and $280 paint and install. It took some doing to get the striker right and the gaps tight. Still need a smidge of adjusting if you ask me but I'll be back at the shop next week and they can mess with it.

After:

I dig it..........

unfortunatly i am dealing with a dented front bumper right now because my ******* friend put his trailor hitch into it yesterday, not sure what Im going to do, unfortanatly i think i am going to end up having a dented front bumper for a while.... GFDI

now if you wanna trade bumpers, we might have somethin there

 

[chistoso]

Seems to me you shouldn't be havint to worry about it, Make him pay for it or fix it.
He broke it make him fix it. I would..

He shouldn't even allow you to think about it. It should've been taken care of yesterday if I had done it.. But that's just me..

I can see if the guy I got my hood from has a bumper, he has mad parts. It turns out he's a body guy at a dealership. I am picking up an e-fan assembly from him for $150. He has like three storage bays full of GM body parts and the guy in the bay across from his storage bays does paint. I really stumbled on a goldmine!
