Finally got the erge to go outside, and shoot pics of my car with her new hood.









(PS i know about my licence plate, I dare someone to come to my house and do something)

 

did you rattle can it or something? whats the black spots?

 

I used a paint gun, and those black spots are shadows. Its dull because I haven't color sanded it yet.

 

ahh, that makes sense then, just didn't look like a shadow. cool, should look good once its buffed and waxed

 

its a diffrent color than the rest of the car and the gaps dont line up. but i'll give props to anyone willing to paint there own stuff.

 

Your right about the color.

We got the exact color from the store, but 2 things happened. one, the pearl wouldnt go through the strainer, no matter how much thinner we used. Didnt want to just pour the paint and thinner into the cup because it most likely would have spit, looking worse then it does now. second, no matter how hard you try, its nearly impossible to match an existing paint job.

 

It looks way better than when it was black

 

It looks to me like you forgot the clear coat.

 

As I said before, I havent wet sanded it yet.

There are 3 coats of clear on that paint job.

 

lookin good. no negatives here.

 

lets go "tee-pee "his house.

very nice ride man
