Okay, I've pretty much made up my mind on Cervini's Cobra R hood. How much prep work on average is needed to paint this hood? Thanks.
I prepped my hood at work, I sanded the top side with 400 grit on a DA, the bottem side I just scuffed with a red scotch pad until the underside wasn't shiny anymore. Cleaned it off with wax/grease remover, sealed it and painted it. Very easy. I got some better pictures coming soon if you want to see them.

You should also wipe it down with the wax/grease remover before sanding. You can actually grind silicon and other stuff into the gelcoat when scuffing it, making it much harder for the w/g remover to get it out after sanding.
