Alright so I just got my Cowl hood in from abc exclusive and it looks raw! And also my dad got me a new passenger door for my car (last March I hit a tree and was never able to fix it) The hood is white and the door is red. This might be a silly question, but how much you think it would cost to get them painted? My friend told me 400ish, but im guessing it depends on the type of shop I go to.

Also, Im thinkin it would be easier to put the hood on myself, does anyone know what the procedure is in doing so?? Im assuming it would be a waste to go to a shop to get it installed when Im pretty sure Im capable of doing it in my drieway.

depends on the prep work involved. paint work is about $40 an hour not including materials.

i would guess the $500-600 range is prep work is normal

the hood will need the gel coat sanded, them primered then prepped for the paint IF everything is smooth
