Hood Scoop Estimate

I think this estimate is crazy. What you guys think?

 

Sounds low. My hood scoop is worth one million dollars.

 

Not when done correctly. You get what you pay for with auto rapair/paint work. Spent 4 years in autobody repair, currently 9 years deep in manufacturing, this stuff is not cheep when done correctly.

 

Pfft, from my cold, dead hands

 

Not a repair.. is a swap!!

 

Could be more, the color match maybe off, then we are talking about blending/ painting the fenders. 2k seems about right

 

Normal cost if you want one that bad,

 

I guess the black market would be the next option...

 

Same pricing.

 

makes me wonder how much cash is being thrown in on hood swaps. seems like those wanting hood scoops would need to spend anywhere from $1,000-$1,500 if they bought and painted on their own, and might get about $300-$400? selling their old hood.

 

Sad but true!!

 

I estimate another 7HP

 

I just cut my hood scoop off.

 

I priced the parts more than once through toyota part dealers like Olathe or Titus Will and both times the parts were < 550, yet your quote is 792. Paint varies though, some shops want to blend the fenders and quotes on that range from 3-700+ around me.

 

double post

 

Toyota Would make a killing if they just offered a ready to go scooped hood as a TRD part.

 

I'd buy one

 

Hell yeah!!
