Nope, a good paint job on a hood will run you at least $300-400 bucks..

if it was only as easy as that... it takes a lot to match the paint including blending. its not just buy paint code and spray. it has to mixed and computer scanned for closeness.

Yep, and tinting paint to match a car can be a royal pain in the butt. Expect to pay $200-$300. Like csledd said, make friends w/ a painter and get it done for the cost of paint plus a six pack. Thats how I do all of my business with my friends.
