agreed. Looks like the hood is from another car to me.

no offense. I thought about wrapping my car a while back (my last car..) but I never did it. I was worried about it damaging my paint.

none taken, well my car has been wrapped about 3 times now, for the age of the paint and all, I never had a problem with it damaging my clear or anything like that, The glue is made to be sticky but not permanent, it takes a few days to wrap a car, and only a hour or two to remove it :l Ill be at cars and coffee this time,your more than welcome to look at it up close. =) also if you just want to protect the paint, just do the clear bra, NOT 3M it yellows after about 1-2 years. thanks for input, ill be making changes to hood and trunk to so it flows better.

Looks cool. The 2 tone looks a bit odd to me because it looks like your car has body parts from 2 different colors. If the color change was along a line down the side, continued onto part of the bumper or something it might look better to me.
