Default Need your guys' opinion on what i should do

Ok so one of my immature *** friend(not really friends but we play sports together)jumped on my hood the other day,needless to say i was pissed as expletive..we went to his dad's office and his dad said he'll take responsibility for it,the next day i brought it to a body shop that the dad reccomended,it was far as hell..well anyways the bodyshop quoted $275 for a new hood and get it painted..now i thought about it for a sec,and realize that if i drop it off i wont have transportation for a cpl of days,i dont know the neighborhood that well,i dont know their work that well and so i told the dad "look give me $250 cash and i'll take care of it my self" and he was like ok,i'll do that

sooooo

what should i do?i want a CF hood but the cheapest i found is around $400

..should i get a new hood and get it painted?

..get a used hood and get it painted?

..dont get a hood and finish up my suspension?(i have Omni sleeve coils right now and i want either tokico blues or KYB gr-2's)


..get a used hood,dont get it painted,spend the rest of the money on shocks?
