Re: Cost to repaird 3inch gash and small dent on hood
I already received a quote on paint alone, and to have it professionally done would cost me $500. I know, sounds ludicrous! This alone makes me think CF is a good option. If anyone knows a good shop in Montreal, lemme know asap.
BTW, hood OEM would run me 400.00 shipped. And still needs paint...

Re: Cost to repaird 3inch gash and small dent on hood
$230 for a detail.. WOW.. I used to do detailing and we charged 109.99 for complete everything including wax.
I dunnno, rates maybe higher there as there may be more demand.. here every other corner has a detail shop.
As long as the stone dent isn't too bad, you may be able to pop it out do some smoothing and keep the original OEM hood.. But the prices you are shooting, it would make sense to go that CF route.. Being a black car, it will blend nicely i guess. Just remember, no matter what, carbon fiber hoods never fit as nice as OEM...

Honestly, if it's cheaper to do, I'll probably do it. To be honest, I have to detail my car soon as well, and thats going to cost $230.00 alone. I'm in Montreal by the way... I'll post pictures soon, it's pouring out at the moment.

Here's a few photos of the hubby's Ducati Carbonnio track bike to illustrate just how sexy raw carbon fibre is:
