EDIT: The EG hood fits, ordered it on faith and gladly, it fit. Here is a pic:


I'm looking for a new hood for my Del Sol. I boguht the car and it had a EG front end swap, but the front body panels are all messed up.

So when I was searching for a new hood I saw that there are different types for different models, like the 2dr is shorter than the 4dr hood.

My question is, what hood would I need for the del sol with an eg front end conversion?

Here is a pic :

 

Are there any identifying markers inside the hood? Stickers, numbers, VIN stamps, anything? Without SOME kind of identification markers, you're expecting one of us to take an educated guess at what kind of hood you have.

 

If there were any identification markers then I could easily find out what hood it is.. that is why I am hoping someone else knows. Here are the only marking under the hood:


The markings are too faded to read out any legible part number.






Also the measurement from in the middle from top to bottom is 41.5".. couldn't find the dimensions of the oem hoods.

 

There's nothing wrong with the hood you have. You need to try reworking the panels.

 

Please place simple technical questions directly into the thread title -- Title edited.

 

The hood has bumps and microdents all over the top, and the corners are all bent and mangled.

Can someone measure their hood down the middle and tell me the measurements they get please?

 

If that's the case, while you're waiting for measurements, replace those fenders as well.

 

I already plan on it, already got a set of eg fenders, just need to find some del sol ones to weld the back half to the eg so they fit.

 

That picture just hurts my eyes to look at. Thanks for having the sense to make it right.

 

bump.. please can someone measure their hood? I need to order one quick, the left side of this one has gone to hell and barely connects to the hinge.

 

Considering you had to replace all that front end anyway, I don't know why you wouldn't just return it to stock? But, considering that is a hatch/coupe front end, then the hood should be for a hatch/coupe also, I would expect.

 

Doesn't the correct hood depend on which fenders you have? Any numbers on the fenders?
EDIT:N/M I see the answer has already been posted.

 

I like the EG front end on the Sol. Looks much better than the Del Sol's front end.

 

It really does look better imo

 

EG fenders and bumper = EG hood

 

It has the 92-95 Radiator support on there, would need to swap that out for a Del Sol one.


The EG Fenders are too short for a flush fitment, they are 2 inches short to the doors.

I'm going to order the EG hood and hope it fits.

 

Original post edited, the EG hood was the right one. Posted a pic in the original post.

 

sweet looks good. how much was the damage?

 

It was pretty bad.. lots of bumps on the hood, the corners were damaged, and a bolt was cut in one of the mounting holes so it wasn't 100% connected to the hood hinges. Here is a pic:

 

Wth did the pop do to it? How much did the hood go for$200 shipped?

 

Po not pop

 

I have no idea. It's like he danced on the hood, lol..

I found a local dealer who sells OEM parts to body shops, got the hood for $100 only. Fenders I got for $40 each.

 

whats all involved in this swap? i might be picking up and del sol and was thinking of doing this.
