The hood came from a parts vehicle, so there is obvious signs of age-related wear/sun damage to the lacquer layer, however it is straight with no signs of previous accident damage.
Please note - this hood is only suitable for the facelift bmw e46 coupe/convertible which ran from around 2004 onwards. This version had larger front grilles plus other changes to the face of the vehicle such as the headlight clusters etc. Although the dimensions of the hood remained the same across the whole production run of the coupe/convertible, it is not interchangeable with earlier vehicles produced pre 2003.
