Got my hood painted

#1 Post by DriveWFO » Mon Apr 02, 2007 8:07 am

I decided to get my hood painted to match the rest of the car. I made a deal with a local paint shop and got the labor for free. I wet sanded the hood and buffed it myself. I'm real happy with how my work turned out since I've never done any kind of paint work before.
