Big time! I got my wife's bumper colourmatched and painted in primer/base/clear for 150$. A hood should only cost 350$ at the most - and that is for a top-notch job.

well that is the truth, what color do you have. I know on my old car(a CTS) it had a metallic red tri coat paint. It was a sparkly red paint. and in order to make it match they would have to blend it into all surrounding panels if not it would stand out like sore thumb due to the flakes possible going in the wrong direction

i would assume this is not needed for a simple color like black or something
