I would say like almost all fiberglass hoods you'll need to do some prep work. Not only will a little sanding be required before paint, you'll probably have to do a little trimming as well. A Harwood hood that I had on a previous car required you to drive it for at least five days unpainted so the heat from the engine & any sunlight would help cure the fiberglass.

They were very surprised and looked into it right away, ordering hinges to verify the problem, apoligizing and thanking me while also tracking any other hoods that were sold. They took care of everything immediately, setting everything up for the return at my convenience, took it back and refunded my money assuring me that they were going to test the hood to a car as had been done previous to this problem before selling them again.
It's a good company and I would have done business with them again had I not picked up a real WS6 hood for a good price locally. On my car the Suncoast left a gap at the front edge and needed to slide forward throwing the back off slightly as I have seen on other cars as well. Even the OEM WS6 hood I fitted needed some of the same treatment and wasn't perfect as well.
Here is a link to a recent thread with a Tru Fiber that looks to fit very well. I had wanted to have the airbox as well and many of the hoods don't have one though. The Suncoast airbox was a nice piece!

Hope that helps with your decision...
