Very cheap! I was also interested in this when I saw it, but, asked around. I found out that the fiberglass frames crack easily, such as if a door hits it. Its difficult to paint fiberglass. I guess you need some special type of paint. And, lastly, the parts don't match up very well. I guess you need to modify the hood to fit perfectly.

I wouldn't buy it if I were you. Its not worth it. Just wait until somebody sells a used metal front for cheaper.
