Thanks for the comments guys.....It took him the longest to prep the hood as you probably know....there were a lot of imperfections with the fiberglass hood.....he said the ghost stripes he can do in no time....said he would be done in a couple hours..... he sanded underneath where he put the ghost stripes, to where after he put the clear coat on...everything was flush....he said all-in-all he had probably about 16 hours-18 hours in it. He's a friend of a friends so it was pretty reasonable...put the hood on and made sure everything lined up....about $550

Love it and do you mind me asking what you paid for the hood and the stripes to be painted? (PM me if you want or post here)

The haziness will disappear after the first wax and it looks like some streaking from whatever product they used to polish the hood......no worries and its an easy fix when you can wax it!

Hood shines so well you need shades to look at the pic!
