Don't paint PART of the hood. If you're going to a paint shop anyways, you might as well paint the whole hood it is less work than "blending" and it may be less than you thought. I would paint the whole hood and blend to the fenders. If the car is not very old it may not need much blending anyways. Just make sure you go to a good shop with quality work and a WARANTEE.
