Thats what the kid they bought it from did. Had a door **** (Round shiny one) for a hood ornament. It was purchased for $50 and it ran for a while. They took it down to primer, and replaced the door ***** after they got it, but yeah, thats how it looked when they bought it. It was a POS and they didn't care at the time money was kinda tight for them.

dont use flat black... use semi gloss... I'll be taking it off again next weekend so I can wetsand and clear the center of the hood. The gloss black looks good, but its not shiney enough.... It will be when im done

I didnt want to paint the bumper because it would look ****ty in spray can paint.. AND im getting the ABC exclusive cobra lip bumper, so im not that worried about it. The hood was in primer, and it was aggrevating me a bit. I also didnt feel like taking my bumper off the car... The hood is easy.. only 4 bolts

Pics are uploading right now, they will be in my next post!
