Finally painted my Sunoco hood... Well I JUST picked it up from the paint shop so these are just preliminary pics (haven't put the headlights, emblems, grille, etc... back on yet) but here you go:
I got the hood painted, the bumper painted and the fenders blended. Bascially the whole front clip has been repainted. They did an EXCELLENT job (they are the guys who did my spoiler) the color matches, paint is thick, and no orange peel
Hard to see in my crapy pic but here's a shot to show the lack of orange peel (still very dusty in this pic):
In the very near future it will finally look like this photoshop of it (hood was actually in gelcoat still in this pic):
More pics to come

Heatshield would cover up the huge cowl opening
