Please help with an estimate for a hood re-spray

geddy lee · 06-16-2012, 04:23 PM

I have a 2009 Magnetic Black with SP. I bought it about a month ago with only 12 K on it. It was a leased car. I love the car but the hood has some stains and spots on the clear coat that just won't come out. Magnetic black is such a bitch to maintain and keep clean. How much would it probably cost me to just have the hood re-sprayed? Thanks

Have you used a clay bar yet? Or had it detailed/ buffed? Something this simple should be an easy fix.

Take it to a reputable detailer and they can get the damage out rather than respray just the hood

This isn't an apples to oranges comparison, but I was quoted $740 to respray the rear bumper on a pearl white.

Your hood should be cheaper because it's a less technical piece to work with and I don't think the black is a 3 step paint like the pearl white (I could be very wrong on that though).

This was quoted by a Nissan dealer btw.
