That seems like even a better price when you consider it's free shipping.

Here is some info from an old post of mine on colors/years to help you search for OEM hoods:
The scooped hood was standard on the Highlander/Sport Package/Sport Edition from 1999-2002. The 2002 model is the only one out of the 4 that has Sport Edition badges. The Highlander/Sport Package/Sport Edition was only available in a select colors. Every 4Runner with this package was only painted in one of these 6 colors:
1999: Black, Imperial Jade Mica
2000: Black, Imperial Jade Mica, Millennium Silver
2001: Black, Imperial Jade Mica, Millennium Silver
2002: Black, Thundercloud, Sunfire Red, Stellar Blue
Black: 4 years (popular color choice)
Imperial Jade Mica: 3 years (very popular color choice)
Millennium Silver: 2 years (extremely popular color choice)
Thundercloud: 1 year (fairly popular color choice)
Sunfire Red: 1 year (not nearly as widespread as the colors above)
Stellar Blue: 1 year (rare color)
Most of the OEM sport hoods you will find on craigslist or in salvage yards will be black, green, or silver. My guess is that 80% of all sport hoods came from the factory in one of these 3 colors. I can tell you that black and green are slightly more common than silver. The assumption would be that there are more Black hoods than Imperial Jade Mica just because Black was available for all 4 years, but that would be wrong if the sport package was painted in Imperial Jade Mica much more often that the Black from 1999-2001. From having done a ton of searches (on HollanderParts.com and Car-Parts.com) over the past year I would guess than it fairly evenly split between Black and Green as far as OEM scooped hoods produced.

I found a straight one in my color on a part out on craigslist, about an hour away. Guy wanted 395 for it. Still looking. The roughly $130 primed hood + roughly $120 inserts that are usually on ebay seem to be a viable option. My wife says black hood would look cool, that makes the paint factor a lot easier. It's hard for me to spend that much money on something that is purely just for looks though. Still keeping an eye out as a millennium silver 4runner with a sport hood is a beautiful thing.

I looked at it in person, it's busted in many places, well beyond any reasonable repair.

Yeah, that's where I ended up giving up. Just couldn't justify the cost for a purely cosmetic thing.

You can get used inserts on e-Bay. I'd just spend the $150 on a new one from Toyota.

Well this showed up today. As always, I'm sure the hood was gone before the truck touched the ground. Not a scratch on the truck, it kills me to see these things go to the junkyard due most likely to some stupid mechanical/electrical issue.

I have a hood from Certifit. It's not the best fit, but it works. It was $90, I picked it up from a Certifit location about an hour from me. Insert I got from eBay for about $130 and painted it black, and cut the back out of it.
