What shops can paint CF hoods?
I just picked up a CF GC8 hood today and was planning on taking it to a shop so they can paint it to match my factory color (RBP) rally blue pearl. Where is a good place that can prep the hood and get it to match my car? I was thinking Kreative Kustoms but if theres any other good places give some suggestions, thanxx.

Sorry for my wrong information, I was unaware that the WRX was the only car with an aluminum hood. Good luck with the painting. Might I suggest a paint shop in Burlingame by the name of "La Bay Autobody". George is the man.
