Default Painted my Z!!!











have to work a few spots out on the hood as well as tape off the scoop and lay down the black. also need to get my new emblems and get the windows tinted and the outside will be DONE!

if you don't notice what exactly was painted here it is:
-hood
-roof was painted black as opposed to the factory red
-spoiler
-berger panel (also filled the camaro letters in)

I have been wondering what it would look like with the letters filled in. I think I am going to do that as well now.

Looks nice esp with the black top.
