@ tauxeef bro : Its a 2003 SE Saloon and the pic is in the first post of the dent.

@ Faraz Arif: My dear brother i am in no mood of selling this car ever as its my late Father's car and well frankly have a fond attachment to it,plus this car is 2003 model has only been driven 25k never been painted on a single panel ever, so keeping this in mind i don't wish that the bonnet be opened and welded again, that is the sole reason the idea of replacing came into mind but considering what friends have told me that the replacement bonnet from 3S wont have seals is a bit confusing, i for one think that "SEAL" refers to the welding of upper sheet and the mesh beneath it,and the edges where they meet.

Now should i replace the bonnet with new one ? or get a 2nd hand one from bilal gunj and can anyone give a rough idea how much it would cost apart from paint

Buddy no offense but if you are never going to sell this car then why be worried about the resale value decreasing as mentioned in your first post. Go with the second hand one and spray paint it well from some good place. But remember a repaired original is still way better than a second hand part.
