  • Painted my hood inserts...

    Id reccomend this to anyone who wants to set there stocker hood off a little more. I painted mine crome, which was the closet thing that i found that matched my billet grille. It was really simple....took about 30 mins and that was just waiting for the paint to dry inbetween coats. Worked out good i think. When i get my stripes then ill prolly take them back out and paint them white to match the stripes. Pics on my webpage (page 8) if anyone wants to take a look. See ya,

        When I had my ghost flames done I removed the inserts and painted them same color as the flames.

          Wow...those look pretty good....I was thinking about doing it but I didn't know how they would turn out, but now that I've seen yours I'm going to go buy a can of chrome spray paint soon....and just like the other guy asked, did you clearcoat them?

            Nope, no clearcoat was applied. Just duplicolor chrome enamel. I put about 4 coats on there...worked out pretty good.
