new hood

[06iornhorse]

my new hood the black primer will have to do till I can afford to pay my paint and body guy. do yall think it would look good flat black along with the rear deck spoiler & a cdc classic chin spoiler in flat black. opinions are always appreciated.

You need to be making 600+ hp to have that big of a cowl. I'd leave it unpainted for now and see if you still like driving the car around with that thing blocking your vision in a month. Then I'd paint it, to me, leaving the hood unpainted makes the car look more like a beater.

 

[06iornhorse]

it will get painted just trying to decide how I want to do it

 

[irishpwr46]

paint the rest of the car flat black

Looks good man!! Go ahead and paint it...once you are use to it, you'll love the looks it gets.....

(which I am kind of biased)

 

[Gallagher]

ya i have to agree.. cowl is to big for a DD thats just my opinion tho

 

[Chris06GT]

I daily drive.....not a problem...

 

[kleistang]

If you are going to leave it black, get it painted with hotrod black or a satin black. That primer black will start to look grey soon if you leave it like that.

I don't think the flat black looks all that bad. Black chin spoiler would help the look. Maybe flat black between the tail lights. Never really been a fan of the flat black rear wing on the S197s.

And yea... you could get a nose bleed standing on top of that cowl

the primer is just a hold me over it will be painted either a satin, flat black or satin silver to match the car but i bought headers as well so no money for my body man right now.

 

[Chris06GT]

I thought about this......Paint the hood silver to match the car, and do the sides of the cowl black.....

I rather spend 300 bucks on painting the hood than 2k on doing the black top. i already got a quote xD

 

[06iornhorse]

well I was quoted 800 from a buddy that owns a body shop.

thats a great deal then i was quoted for painting the top of the car black, clearing the whole car and not doing the stripe (i wanted a smoth surface with no edge) the pinstripe is basicly to covver that edge between colors.

i'll do black wrap on my car.
