Been awhile since I've hung out here, and have overall really been enjoying my SparkEV (bought mine January 1, 2015). Some time back I had a tree limb fall on the hood and dent it some—not so bad that I couldn't live with it for a while. When I first checked, I could find no replacement parts (the repair was bid at $750+), I was thinking that there would eventually be some that were in accidents (rear enders, for example) that would spare the hood and I might find one to more cheaply replace.
I assume that the hoods for the regular Sparks are far different, but when I checked the site car-part.com it didn't even list the EV to search for parts.
Question: Does anyone have any ideas on where to find replacement parts for this vehicle? I have the light blue version, not that that makes any difference, but I was told that in repairing it they would not assure me the color would be an exact match (so even more reason I'd like to find a hood in the original color, intact, from a pick-apart vehicle).
Thanks everyone. Hope you all are enjoying yours as much as I do mine.
