Where to get a new hood

My poor hood has started to get some terrible fade spots on it. Particularly after I used clay bar on it. Where can I get a new hood with the hood scoop on it? I found a few sites that sell them for around 150 but I am unsure of the fitment quality. Dealership wants 350. Any place to look for a used one?

Thanks guys,
Jeff

I can get you a new one for $125 + shipping. I had an aftermarket one and it fit perfect.

Spray it with a layer of clearcoat and it will be good as new.


a scoop for the 3.4L is no more useful than a wing on a 1.6L civic, both just create unnecessary air drag

You are 100% correct in that. But if you give anyone a hood with a scoop on it for their 4Runner which doesn't have one, I bet they would take it. I know I would.

I would spend a couple hundred $$$ on one just because I love the look of them. And I hardly ever spend money on things just for the look factor.... I look at a few 4Runners around here who have them and they change the whole look of the front end.
