I was given an estimate of $300-350 to hang and paint my hood by my local body shop. I guess I am going to find out soon, as I got an email last night from Roger at US Exotics saying that my hood had shipped FedX !!!!

Default thanks

thanks for the feedback, I saw some company (dont remember who) sells the WS6 hood for 700 and it's like 950 or so painted, but i heard they dont paint too good, and since i found this hood for under 500 and if you add 350 for a pretty good paint job thats still alot better then paying 950.
