Default What do you think of the hood ?

Well i put the hood on !!!! And was getting the fitting right . And drove the car a few days . I know i might be crazy but i like it black . What is on it now is just primer . But i think i'm going to put some rally black on it and see how i like it . What do you guys think ? I think i need one more pic from straight on . It looks so mean from the front .



And im doing the grille black also !!!!

Default Hood

If you want to keep it black I'd paint it gloss black as well as painting the rear lid and spoiler gloss black to match the whole top of the car.

Looks like ***! JK. Looks great man, get that sucker painted and post some more pics

If you paint it body color it would look WAAAAAY better than black. If you insist on black, maybe consider some stripes on the sides of the cowl, or a racing stripe up the middle of the hood....
