To the Op the hood was about 300 and another 200 to paint it to match .
Why did I paint it , I mean you see the before/after pics right ? It looks way better color matched Imo also its more of a "complete look" rather than a miss match body panel look .

Understood...just don;'t understand why someone would buy a CF hood and then hide it is all. I completely agree with your color matching tho...was just curious.
