I’m trying to find replacement body parts to repair a damaged hood on my Nissan Pathfinder. I’ve found someone who says they have a new genuine Nissan hood, but I don’t know how to verify its authenticity.

      Genuine parts are stamped, look for a stamp on your original to know where to look on a new one. look along the edges.
