Model year matters too: 2017 units carry the lowest median at $300, while 2019 tops the table at $555. Parts from 2011–2018 are interchangeable, so if the 2017 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 8 compatible years.

Buying a used hood: what to check
- Check for corrosion along the front lip and underside seams, the first place hoods rust.
- Aluminum hoods dent easily in storage; ask for current photos before shipping.
- Confirm hinge and latch compatibility; some facelift years moved mounting points.
- A straight, same-color hood saves $300+ in paint work. Verify the paint code.
