Tell me brother, did it bolt right up? Alot of adjusting? and finally, the cost to paint?

Did you have the fenders blended in with the hood? did you have the front clip repainted?

I need to know so i have some negotiating room with some local painters.

Car looks Awesome!!
Yeah bolt up as for aliment sucks big time! My buddy painted it for me. And its going be alot to paint cus the qulity of the hood is not great at all. My buddy told me is was hard *** hell to paint. And he charged me $300 and blend the hood the match the rest the piant. And other shops wanted to charge me $800 and up

That's not good news... Did you let it "cure"? In other words, did you install it onto the car and allow it to conform to it?

If i can get mine to look like yours, i'll be happy.

Any close up pic's? Did you have to shim the fenders? a little patience, and alot of adjusting ought to fix you up.
$300.00 is cheap!!
