I just ordered mine from the dealer. Should be in tomorrow.

86435-27000 is the part number on my order slip. 30 bucks is all they charged me.

I made a HUGE mistake of keeping my rusted trim for a year and now , it rusted the border of my hood. Replace it with a fiberglass one, made in 30mins.

i just bought mine today for $25. It was part number 86519-27500 and Hyundai calls it a STRIP SEAL AND CENTER BRACKET.

I called three Hyundai dealerships to see who had it in stock and they all gave me different prices. The one that didn't have it in stock said $45 and the one that was further away but had it in stock said $32. Weird but I got it at the closest one to me. Just call your local Hyundai parts store first and ask them who would have it in stock.

I would spend the extra $3 on some rust paint and paint it over again... also use rust check on it when it dries out

i took mine off and sandblasted it and painted it silver to match the car color. the hood rubs it tho and is starting to rust again after only like 3 months I may go with the just rubber now, but mine is ripped a little so I would need to get a new gasket to even do that



notice the tear on the pass side where the bumper curves up to go over the highbeam
