Had mine repainted after I faught a wall and lost. Was hoping it would be replaced but stingy arse State Farm said bondo would suffice. Although, at that point, the hood was the least of my worries. The other $8k worth of damage was priority, heh.
So ya, I dont have your answer since I had a plethora of other war injuries. It shouldnt be any more than $400 though. Although, I would have at least 1-2 extra coats of clear laid on it. You can never have too much clear on a hood. Makes it better for wetsanding down the road to take care of them unsightly scratches and road knicks.
