I'll try to answer all your questions
It is one peice!
I absolutely LOVE the hood!!! I had an SLP hood and loved it too, but the quality was crap and even after extensive body work, it still had waves in it, basicly looked like a fat chick sat on my hood, so I went with the CF hood and will never look back.
There is no labor cost persay, the hood is PERFECT out of the box, I have seen just about every aftermarket hood out there and so far the banshee hood is the only on that fits the lines of the car flawlessly. For the paint, I have a guy
, but he charged me 600 for the hood, the front auto x grilles painted black and the back panel black. So I can't tell you for 100% what the hood was, but 3 things were painted for 600I think that the same setup but in red would look just as good! Its all on personal preference, but I figured I couldn't go wrong with old school hood stripes.

oh yeah, a TON of looks and alot of comments. I also have LTs, P&P 243 heads and a cam, so she's loud too! For x-mas I getting the banshsee CF spoiler too and will expose a bit of that as well. I'm hoping to be in "heavy mod" for the GTOAA Nats next year. Got third this year in modded. There are waaay too many more mods to list now, but I'm looking to have a full suspension done by then and maybe even brakes too.
