FS: OEM C63 Cpe Hood & Grill
I'm selling the hood and grill off my '12 C63 coupe. Someone bumped it while parked, so I figured I would take the opp. to upgrade to the BS/507 hood.
This is the damage to the hood.
My body shop said it would be ~$200 to fix the hood and have it ready to paint. The OEM hood ordered through MBZ is $1,180. The Grill is $580. I'll take $600 for the hood, $220 for the grill (it has a small crease visible in the pic, easy fix plus plasty dip and it's better than new), or $750 for both (this includes the under-liner/heat shield for the hood, which is ~$150). Again, these two parts together would be $1,760 new (w/ the liner it's ~$1,900).
The car.
My new hood.
I prefer local pick up (Southern California), so I'll see if it goes that route. If not, I'll look into shipping options. The hood and grill are off of the car and ready to go.
For anyone that's curious, the BS hood, liner, "nostril scoops" w/brackets, etc. is over $3,400 (before paint).
Thanks for your interest.

Thanks. It's an OEM BS hood, ordered through a local dealership. I'll post up some pics of it installed (the paint guy did an awesome job matching the Diamond White finish). Total was $3,858.85 (before paint).
All PM's replied to. I would really like this to go to someone local (don't want to deal with shipping). I want it out of the garage, so I'll make a killer deal for anyone around Southern Cali.

As you can see in the first pic, the "nose" of the hood is bent down slightly, which cracked the paint. The hood needs to be straightened, then prepped for paint. I was told by my body shop that it would be about $200 to straighten it and have it ready for paint. Paint, I'm guessing, would probably be another $150-$200 (if it stays Diamond White). A completely new color might be $300-$400. To buy this hood new and have it painted would be ~$1,600. My hood, including prep and paint, will run someone $600-$850.
The hood is aggressive and really compliments/completes the styling of the C's front end.
