Default Does this sound reasonable

I got a quote from a body shop yesterday to paint my hood between the ridge lines black and then clearcoat the entire hood for $350. The car is Tungsten Grey with black side stripes and a black honeycomb panel between the tail lights. I saw a post where someone said it would cost him about $800 so the $350 sounded good to me. I told the guy I was thinking like $200 but I guess that was low.

It cost me about $400 for my hood here (not including the scoop). But they took it all the way down and repainted the red and black, then clear-coating the whole hood.

That car looks great. The black on the hood really stands out. Looks like you got a good deal for your $400. What kind of audio did you install?

Thanks for the compliments! Here's my list of audio:
Head unit: Pioneer DEH-P80MP
door and rear deck speakers: Kenwood Excelon KFC-X680
Subs: Rockford Fosgate P210S4
Sub Amp: Rockford Fosgate Punch P3001
My 6x8s sound good without an amp since the head unit puts out 27 watts RMS/60 peak x 4 channels. My only problem is that my trunk lid rattles like hell. Sooner or later I'll have to figure out a fairly cheap way to deal with that.
