SILVER 002
OEM Sport Hood
1C0 Millennium Silver Metallic

Yesterday I was looking for some 4Runner parts in Northeast Houston and I found this nice Highlander/Sport Edition scooped hood. This is from a "fresh" 2000 Millennium Silver 4Runner with the rare Moon Mist (Blue/Gray) leather interior that arrived recently and was just starting to get picked apart.

The "points" near the windshield and the front corners are in perfect condition - not bent. This hood was removed from a 2000 4Runner and placed in the back of my 4Runner on a furniture pad. This hood has never touched the ground unless it was on the ground in 1999 or 2000 at the factory. When I unloaded it from my 4Runner I placed the "points" on dish towels so they wouldn't touch the tile floor. There is some black and white house paint spots and streaks that will easily buff out. I was able to scratch some of it off with my finger nail.

The underside is in excellent condition. Everything is there including the heat shield, underside attachments for the scoop insert, a legible VIN #, TOYOTA stamped in the steel, two factory instructional stickers, and the clips for the washer fluid line. All 11 plastic/rubber discs that hold the heat shield are there.

I realize that this price is not exactly cheap, but please keep these things in mind when you are evaluating this purchase:
- You can buy a cheaply made aftermarket hood for $150, add the Toyota scoop insert and other extras for $150, and then paint match and blend into the fenders Millennium Silver and you would probably be around $500 with a reputable paint shop, plus you wouldn't have an OEM hood.
- I bought my Stellar Blue Sport hood from Long Beach, CA for $300, paid fellow forum member Brent $150 to box, crate and transport the hood to be shipped, then I paid Greyhound $141 to ship it, and finally I paid a guy $50 to buff out most of the paint imperfections. I'm in mine for over $600 and I still think that it was worth it.
- This is a nice Sport hood that after it is buffed out should look exactly like SILVER 001 that is listed for $395. The paint is phenomenal for being 15 years old - hell, it would be superb condition for being 5 years old. There is some black and white house paint that scratches off with your finger nail. There are a few barely noticeable scratches in the paint.
- This hood makes perfect sense for a highly detail-oriented Millennium Silver owner who will install this hood and transform his 4Runner. For someone less particular this hood might not be worth the price.

I can drive one hour in any direction from B-CS to meet someone. I am in Houston on some Saturdays, so if I am going to be in Houston anyway I can bring this hood with me and meet you there.

$315 PayPal or cash accepted.

Thanks,

Please call or text me to purchase (24 hours - I'm single and I don't care) - I have a full-time job and am not always on this forum. The first person who contacts me on my cell and pays gets the hood. I may not answer your PM if I'm not on the computer, but I always have my cell phone with me.

This one is still available. The $315 price is good considering that it will buff out and probably look almost exactly like the $395 hood.

Hopefully the next Sport hood I find won't be Silver - I have two I can't sell. I certainly don't want to have the only known OEM Silver Sport hood collection in the free world!

Patience young weedwacker.

I really do want one but shipping is killer on these because of the size. It is necessary though because of the care taken to ensure the hood arrives safely, and that's how I would want it done if I were to make the investment on it. Unfortunately At this point I just can't justify it.

I just sent you a PM. I need something in Cleves, Ohio. It is not a hood. Geography is in your favor. We might be able to work something out. Call me at 979-574-2070.
