Default Best Hood For Price & what color?

I have a 1992 Civic Lx Sedan and I need a Hood And Drivers Side Fender.

Well my friends shop can get these at a VERY low price like 50 for the hood and 15 for the fender but their a body shop and have their discounts. well the problem with going with this is that they say its cheap *** Chinese parts. my friend 00 EG replaced his hood and fender 3 times and i can feel how easy it is to damage them.

Are all the body parts the same way on a honda or do the more expensive have harder steel?

What is the best bang for the buck in getting them?

And what color do you guys perfer my to paint my EG? Either Skyblue the original Green or White? you can see a little pic in my Garage.
