I'm wanting a new hood for my 02 lx civic coupe. Mines got a big bullet hole in it along with a bunch of rust spots where rocks have chipped the paint! If anyone knows where I could get a new or used one, preferably the same silver color as the rest of the body, that would be great!

How do I find something aftermarket on here? Sorry I'm new to this forum, and to my civic!

D&H Auto Parts will ship a color matched hood to you, you just need your VIN and paint code:

I've used them in the past, was pleased with the results.

Oh and it will be a aftermarket hood, not OEM

I'll have to check that out dubtee1480, thanks!

i think your better of getting an un-painted hood and having a local shop paint it so they can color match it. your car is almost 13 years old so the paint will be slightly faded.

That's true, I'd love to get it all repainted because of chips and scratches everywhere, how much is a new paint job typically?

i meant just paint the hood to match the faded paint on the rest of the car. typically around my area the hood would cost $150-$300 dollars.the entire car would be $3,000-5,000 dollars because of all the prep work thats needed prep work is the most important part.

Yeah so I think I'll just get the hood painted for now if I get a new one! Haha

Why does your hood have a bullet hole?

Came here to ask the same thing.

Not really sure of the exact story about it, it was already in the hood when I bought it a few months ago haha
