Looks really good. Is that an LS1 style SS hood? The side stripe looks a bit odd to me might just be the angles but if you did the job yourself it looks really good. I love the Blue, what color is it?

Get a new bowtie emblem for the front and paint it white. Ebay has them.
Not a fan of the hockey stick. Looks like a good job though.

My brother and I did all the work. Still have to black out the headlight and grill area. I have the bowtie still and we did paint it white

Everything you see on the car was painted, no decals. Color is Daytona Metallic blue, its a Nissan color. The hood is a fiber glass one from ebay and the quality of it was crap. Lots of air pockets and had to do some cutting on the underside, but its on there, lol.

Reminds me of a ZL1. Paint the headlight buckets black, the grill black, the inner SS scoop area black, and put a blue bowtie in there and call it done! It'd be so badass!



Photoshopped:


Red on the brake calipers would look good too!

lol! you guys crack me up.

The ZL-1 look is what I was going for, I really like the photoshop look. I'll have to talk that over with my bro as he is the one that does all the spraying.
