Cool Harwood Camaro Wide smooth cowl hood PAINTED!
So here's a design I haven't seen before but I wanted to try it on this one. Pics are before clear coat. Sorry about the pics guys, they're from my iPhone. Also went ahead and painted the hardware! (Oh, the stripe on the near side DOES go all the way to the end of the cowl. The reflection obscured it.)





Personally I LOOOOVVVEEE It!

The inspiration was the Linx stripes for our WS6 hoods. Just reversed and used on a Camaro cowl hood. I only had 1/2" painters tape so the pin stripe is 1/2" away from the black and 1/4" wide done by hand. It's all paint, no stick-on stripes.

That looks pretty cool, now gotta see it on the car.

I have one of those hoods, but no Camaro now, heh.

Thanks for the props guys! I'm getting jittery to see it installed too! Gotta let the clear that I shot today cure some before I wet sand it and buff it to a glass-like finish that'll make the rest of the factory paint look bad!

I got a good start on the wet sanding. This thing is gonna look and feel like glass! No bumps over the stripes or anything!
