If you plan to paint the underside of the hood only then get the color matched and have at it BUT if you plan to do the engine compartment then I'd suggest that unless you plan to drop the motor and strip all the components, you'd be better off to leave it alone an live with it. If you try painting it with everything in there it will end up looking worse than a color mismatch! And to paint just the underside of the hood ... who really looks ?!?! Besides (and don't take this the wrong way) its still a "clone".
