Why does it take a body shop to install a hood? Shouldn't it be a 10 minute piece of cake install?

I'm guessing it may need to be preped and painted or if it comes completely painted, then preped and painted for the stripes.

Cervini's hoods don't require a lot of prep.

Also, removing/installing a hood by yourself isn't necessary a piece of cake.
I can do it fine but to respect a certain chronology.
With a friend, it's easy.
