Default My manta

I got a hood this Christmas and couldnt decide which way to go aobut painting it. When i finally decided on a manta, i puit the sucker on and was drinvg back home from the shop with an estmimate and got a ticket. So i didnt have any money to paint it. I drove around with a fiberglass hood for about a month before i finally got it painted this week, and after seeing primer for so long, this looks AWESOME!!!

BEFORE:



This is the only picture where the fitment looks questionable, its really not near this bad, just the flash from the camera highlighted it. I am still gonna try to mess aruond with it and fit it just a bit more, but other than this pic, its fine.






My RAM AIR DECALS from 4th circle designs




I also got the hood clearcoated on both sides, you cant tell from these pics, but its looks a ton better than before


TELL ME WHAT YALL THINK!

An SLP gloss black grill and it'd be 8,000,000 times better.

that shot showing the slightly off fitment also makes the hood look a lil different shade of red. Its a huge improvement though. Now like the rest of em said, get a black grill!

Must be your monitor because it looks pretty damn good to me. I see no color problems at all, aside from shadows.
