Just got a quote from auto paint shop

Trying to paint the hood vent in gloss black since the carbon fiber is chipped and oxidized. Havent been to auto body in a long while. Was quoted $250 from DTM in El Monte. Is $250 a good price?

that's a really good price. It might not be an exact color match with your car if that's all you're getting painted. It would require some blending into the surrounding panels if you don't want it to stick out.

250 bucks to paint hood is more than fair.
