So I got hit by a possibly drunk driver the other night and the idiot left the scene of the accident so i need to get a few parts replaced if the car isn't considered a total loss, so I'm looking to replace the hood which needs to be switched out and I'm looking for a CF hood without the evo looking ducts.

DONT WANT THIS:



but if i have to settle for soemthing with ducts id go for something like this

here is one from japanparts.com



if anyone can point me in the right direction i'd appreciate it very much. Thanks

 

^ Go to dealer section here and speak to them, send them pm's. (ExoX will fit a lancer). Also try checking the FS sections, people might be selling a few OEM hoods.

 

haha good look to buy a OEM hood... if it's pickup it's fine... but if you need to ship...^^"

my 2 orders of OEM hoods were damaged by UPS....

btw does insurance company pay for replacing the hood beside OEM...???

 

^It depends on the insurance company and the coverage that you have. I would speak to them about it. I see that your location is listed as Vancouver B.C. Doesn't the government do the insurance up there, or something like that? It might be more strict but I am not sure.

 

o... in Vancouver... they will replace with OEM product for your car only... so if you damage the Lancer hood they WON'T replace it with the EVO X hood... they will only repair or replace with Lancer hood...

 

well im located in NJ and my insurance will cover aftermarket parts on the car before the accident im looking to change mine because it was damaged in the accident and i hate the fact that it weighs so much.

so does anyone else have any suggestions?

 

so which hood are you getting...!?

 

just getting a stock hood. no one really answered my question and i ran out of time. my mechanic already ordered an new oem hood

 

o....

 

thats wack, u should of just search for any fiberglass or carbon fiber hood. how much did u get for the replacement??? pretty sure u could of gotten a carbon hood...

 

yeh well thing is i woud get a fiberglass or carbon fiber hood if all of them didnt have the vents. I like the clean look and lines of the stock hood just not the weight

 

... you didn't know that Seibon does offer the OEM lancer hood...!?

cool~ best wish for you...
and I should have answer your question earlier... sorry for the delay...^^"

 

hope u could get the carbon hood instead!!
