Can anyone help with where I can find a replacement or something cooler?
Thanks

I live in NJ but would gladly purchase anywhere and have my body shop guy install.

Seems like any competent vinyl shop should be able to handle that?

Great looking car BTW.

One option you might consider, I had severe sand damage to my front end. I found a custom body and paint shop that was willing to repaint my hood, stripes included for no extra cost. My hood looks so much nicer with painted stripes, all blended in perfectly. Can't even feel the paint edge. I put a clear bra over complete hood to protect it. The icing on the cake was that my insurance paid 100% of the repair.
