Anyone have experience ordering factory matched/painted body panels?
My truck got hail damage, mainly to the hood and thinking about just buying a replacement.

I talked to insurance, went to their body shop and doesn't seem worth going through them. I've got a $1000 deductible and some pocket change towards a rental car. I found one company online and at $1200, I think I'd be coming out on top buying myself...two months after a correction and ceramic coating none the less.

I would order the hood and have a body shop install and paint match to your truck. Just because the paint code is the same doesn't mean the color would be dead on match.

I would be worried about the paint match and damage to the paint during shipping. Thats a big package and hard to protect. I would have a local shop do it.
