Painted my hood
Took my hood to metal and repainted it. The respray from 01 pealed in the same spot as the factory paint. And since the respray was macco real paint makes the macco bubble.

Re: Painted my hood
After wetsand and buff. Looks good in person also. Have new hinges to put on it so haven't spent the time aligning the gaps yet. Also new hood insulation.

This should tied me over till I paint the car fully.
