I have Sparkling Graphic Metallic color A22; a 2005 model. The hood has oxidized at the top(24 inch x 18 inch) and it shows(not crazy pealed) when looking from the front. What should a good paint job cost at a quality A-grade shop; that can do a 95% blended in? I've been told at one place $1,200 just for the hood piece (and not including the front bumper). I like to get an idea before I shop around further.

To do the job, I think they would scrap the paint to the bare metal, try to plug in major cavities, and then apply the new paint and clearcoat?

Thanks..


Jack
