It would depend on the quality obviously.
I'm in the market for a new hood, but it would not be easy at all.
door skin's would be cool and easy.

actually its just the opposite. doors would be one of the hardest of the car to do in general. the molds are extremely difficult to make. when i start ordering everything to attempt this i was told to be ready to set aside at least a weekend for the doors

if i decide to market any extra pieces they would be a pin on hood for sure and carbon fiber so expect it to weigh about 3lbs
