So how far would some of you drive for an SRT hood...with slight damage that is very fixable?

I've been offered a hood for about $150, almost in perfect condition but has a few dents and scratches in one area where a basketball court fell on it.

The only thing is that it will be a 3.5 hour drive. Is it worth it?

So, should I buy the Modern/Ebay projector headlights? I have from a good source that thet S-style eyelids will work and still allow you to see enough of the turn signal...so that got me thinking (i think S-style eyelids plus those projectors would be hott. lol). Thoughts?

The sealant they use to keep those headlights together is horrible. It's cheap **** that will cause the lights to fog up and get condensation/water.

I personally wouldn't get them, especially not brand new. Some guy tried 3 aftermarket sealants and still no dice.

So the quesiton remains

DO I TRAVEL ALMOST 4 HOURS FOR A HOOD OR NOT

So, its 4 hours each way, so lets say 250 miles eacjh way, or 500 miles total. With your Neons crappy gas mileage, your looking at two tanks of gas. So we're at $150 for a damaged hood plus $60 for gas, plus any other expenses if you stop for food, drinks, etc. So your looking at $210+/- for a damaged hood...I would say dont waste your time.

looks like i'm bringing back my eyelids!!!!!!!! i was just waiting to hear if they worked or not. I originally wanted to use eyelids but didn't want to spend the money if they would not fit right, i think it was a post a while back. That just made my day, I SAY GET EM!
