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 --- |

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.

So are these cars virtually ding-proof?
How do they hold up to hail? Thanks --- |

Does the material flex enough to crack the paint with big hail I wonder? ---

Nothing like a few hundred chips like that to become pretty handy with a Langka kit. My thought was to temp the repairs until I could afford to repaint the car. But! In no time I discovered the secret was drying time, and I was able to repair a few hundred chips (on a black 95 Vette) to where I could not see the repairs, and I knew where they were too! Fixed some buffer burns on my red Z as well. Nobody could pick out the damaged and repaired edges now. Why do you ask? (If you don't mind me asking) YMMV....Just sayin. P.
