Default Wtb 88 hood in Australia

Hi guys

I'm full restoring an 88 c4 corvette in Australia

I have found a large repair on the hood so I'm thinking
Of replacing it

An ideas of how I can get one in Australia

I can buy a new one for $1400 U.S. Plus 300 U.S. Shipping

So around $ 2300 Australia.

Hoping to find some thing cheaper

Thanks for any help

If you need to ship large items from the US you might be able to find a Corvette owner I sold some wheels to several years ago. I believe he lived in Queensland and had a business that imported product from the US. He would wait until he had enough product to fill a container and then would ship from California. I sent the wheels to a business associate of his in California who placed them in the container. I think he had a buffing and polishing business. Maybe you could place a 'help share shipping cost" ad in some of the area Corvette or auto hobby sites.
Good luck mate !
