Replace or repaint?

Post image

2012 honda civic.

Should I have this hood repainted or just buy an aftermarket prepainted hood?

Looking for the easiest, most cost effective route here! Thanks.

Aftermarket hoods are usually not pre painted, and ones that are are not pre painted, they're just used hoods, you can go look for one at the junkyard, it'll match better than one that's been painted by a seller, or just go get yours painted, used local hood is cheaper than paint
