A junkyard hood and painting it will probably cost more, than just let it pop out by a professional and paint only that part over.

I am glad, that I live next to 3 eastern european countries where it would cost maybe $100 alltogether.

Painting a whole hood in the US will cost you at least $200-$300 I assume.

I just know, that where I live, they calculate at least €100 for a work hour and then you still didn't pay the paint and taxes and whatnot.

And painting the hood is not just spraying it over.

You have to get the old paint off, and then spray it over a few times.

So if you don't find exactly the same color in a good condition, then take this to a professional. Will be cheaper.

Just my 2 cents...

Oh, and make a report at the police about this! Even if they don't find that person, your insurance may pay some cash.
