the hood looks ok, not my style but i wouldnt see it on the road and think damn that ugly, but deffinetly the wrong color choice on the ceta, looks like its just dirty

the CETA actually looked pretty good primered before I painted it but never fear I am going to change it to flat black anyway down the road when I have the whole car repainted.

How did you remove the molding on the sides. Always wanted to do it but don't want to mess up the paint under?

I don't have any pics of the moldings close up right now but I can post some later. It's really easy to do. You just get some fishing line and kinda saw between the molding and the car and then remove the remaining glue w/ some adhesive remover or your fingers (definitely sux to do with your fingers) then wax it and your done.

No seriously I don't mind afterall I love how it looks right now and that's all that really matters to any of us on here. If you can't take the critism then you shouldn't post asking for people's opinions. It's cool!!!!!
