labor? free, do it yourself. There are like 20 bolts in total. 4 for the hood (14mm) and like 16 on the fender (10mm)

parts? umm, hit up the classifieds here, zilvia, FA, 240sxforums. probably 100-150 for both.

http://www.sillbeer.com/fenderharness.php will tell you how to get your fender on and off.

How hard is it to take off a hood and put on a new one?

it shouldn't be hard at all. just take off the bolts and it should come off.

Seriously. Don't pay someone to put a hood on your car. Unless you want to pay me to do it :D
