whats the point of having a black hood when you car isn't black? its just something i've been wondering because i see a lot of cars like that. i think i know why but am not sure.
I did it cause it's cool. Black is the new black, dontcha know?

OMG! It's done already?! You have seriously been working your arses off on this! It looks increddibly nice!
And btw, is that a one-piece CF hood? You know, the one where you can throw away that front plate that always cracks...

Beautiful. You lucky rust free guy.
If I wanted to do a decent paintjob on my car I would have to do at least a hundred hours worth of rust repair and bodywork, probably more
So Rattle can it is, and is good enough
Cheers,
Mark

yeah a primer sealer, non sandable... base clear that needs to cut and buffed.
Who's paint? PPG? The car looks good!

Thanks guys...
you would probly have more than a hundred hours, because for my car it was about 72 hours... but that was with 2 people, so it would have taken me by my self like 144 hours...
IMO my car now looks way nicer and newer than it did with the gun metal, and I probly raised the resale on it like doubble... not that I am going to sell it.
any way thanks for all the compements... But I am sure its not some ones style.
now its time to get this thing to run 14's
and finish the rest of my suspeion...
