Have been searching for a used hood and driver's side fender for our 2002 V40 white wagon which was in a fender bender and insurance declared total. Brother-in-law is retired body man and feels work can be done to get car going again but having trouble locating parts. He said need to use original parts, willing to paint but does not want parts that require drilling of holes. We are loca†ed in California. Salvage yards here don't answer phones. Running into dead ends and would greatly appreciate any advice on best way to search. Thanks so much!

Search online.
You're lucky to be in CA. Many yards have decent web sites.
Also realize that S40 fender and hoods are the same as V40.

If you can't find anything near you, try Erievolvo.com You'll find their number and call them- a pain searching their inventory on line. Otherwise there's always eBay- been lucky there a few times.
