You just might find a really nice aftermarket hood on the forum here - the issue will be whether or not the seller has an appropriate box to ship the thing in without damage. Sometimes you can get a very good deal from FedEx Ground on the shipping. I shipped a stock hood from mid-Missouri to the Chicago area and it cost me around $120 - they cut me a deal being a first time shipper. Pays to shop around and a seller can do that if they want to. Headlights can be bought from forum vendors like JW Motoring and theradioflyer just to name two.
