Question about paint

I have a 01CLP with a TON of miles on it. The guy who owned it before me did alot of cross country type stuff which, while it seems to have taken little impact on the drivetrain, the hood looks like shit.

What should a decent repaint of the hood run?

With the "idol" status many of us put on our cars, that is sacriligous.

BTW - I wish it were only a buck fix. Money sucks when you don't have it.

a good paint job consists of painting the hood and blending it with the fenders. That usually runs around $500-700 my way.
