George, I'd opt for having the body shop paint the hood on the car, and mask the fenders, windshield doors, roof, etc. to prevent overspray. It will turn out better being in a horizontal position. Besides the last thing you want to do is damage a fine paint job while attempting to reattach/realign the hood. The bumper is another issue. The painter will likely prefer to do that off the car.
