Why does it need to be painted? Is the clear delaminating?
If it just needs light sanding, then anywhere from $350 to $700 depending if you want quality product used on it or the cheapest possible.

I will never repaint an automobile. I'll purchase a new or lightly used one.

Hood $300
Roof $300
Total $600
That's what a reputable shop should charge you

I would say about $3k cause they have to blend it in with the other paint them clear it.

You can expect to pay anywhere from $1-$1,000,000, that doesn't mean you won't get charged somewhere in the middle

I called one of the best shops in new Orleans a while back asking about painting my hood. IIRC, just that was around $1200. Whole truck was $6500.
I can't remember what specifically he told me, but either the paint or clear was like $200/gal. Keep in mind that is one of the best shops in a big city. To get it done cheaply and looking like shite, you'd probably be around $150 for the hood and $250 for the roof. The trade off is that is will not look good or match, and most probably won't hold up longer than a year or two.
Imho, Cavin's does the best job in BR and a lot of people know it

Prob gonna be hard to match, I just got my whole Honda painted @ Maaco in PVille. They have a 50% off mid level special right now $350 instead of $700. It blends the clearcoat in with paint at this level ($199/$700/$1200). I'm very happy with the way my Accord turned out. Hood was completely peeled, they also did body work on 3 spots.
