Arrow How much does a frontend hood/fenders cost? ---

I was wondering if the frontend (hood / fenders) of these cars are ridiculously priced like other cars where the hood and fenders tilt up together.

Can you just use any c4 setup (as in buy a used one easily if a replacement is necessary?)

Thanks ---

Sure and you can get "red" more easily than others
Cars get parted out all the time.
You can post what you'd need in the foresale/wanted area of this forum.

Any C4 MY 90 and MY 91-96 will fit both front fenders and hood. GC

The panels and hood are made of SMC (Sheet Molded Composite) which are created from using a heated high pressure mold process that compress a mixture of fiberglass, resin and catalyst. Or a hood body panel etc.

Look on Ebay or your local Craigslist a nice front end can be had in the 1k range or under all day.

Dealer trade on the Viper front cover and hood is 22k. The reason they are so expensive is they are hand built. Very labor intensive.
As for you question about the hood, gills, front cover. Here is a breakdown of years and parts.
90 front cover same on all C4
91-95 front cover same on all C4
90-95 hood Same on all C4
90 gills Same on all C4
91-94 gills same on all C4
95-96 gills same on all C4

So are these cars virtually ding-proof?

How do they hold up to hail?

Thanks ---
