Default replacing body panels

Hey Everybody,

I've got a couple of body panels I want to replace.

The hood due to hail damage
The front right fender due to my own stupidity.

My 05 has 115k on it so I don't want to go spend a few grand to have it done professionally. But I'd like it to look reasonably good.

I noted that I can buy primed panels fairly inexpensively from rockauto or somewhere similar. I could then take them to a shop for paint matching. And do the install myself.

Another option would be to source something from a boneyard.

Any other obvious options that I'm missing?
