New Hood

Well i was looking into the group buy on hoods last weekend, and i was talking to a buddy trying to get him to buy one, and he told me about a hood at a local body shop. I called em up and they said the hood was brand new, and needed paint, and would sell the hood for $350 plus paint. So i picked it up for $450 painted... Its a Reflexxions brand hood... Here's a couple of pics:

 

 

PS- I almost hit a deer about 15 munutes after i had the hood installed :lol: it would've blown... but the ABS and sport tuned suspension saved my ass :D

Looks nice, that cowl is pretty tall. Is it 2" like the Goodmark (Chase), or more?

 

Also, a great price on getting it painted. What have guys that already have hoods paid to get them painted? Since this group buy has come up I've asked a couple places and heard prices from $500 to $675 just for paint :eek: Is it just because of strict CA EPA laws, or am I getting screwed?
