*******update***********

OK....took care of some things this weekend..mainly the grill/hood combo...

I had a good freind of mine just cut the hood up we fitted the grill as we cut...
In the end i think it came out fresh....just needs to be touched up when it goes in for paint....i only had my CAM phone at the time but u get the point.







Here is how she ended up..





Here is a close up just so u see its not some Hack Job....

Because its next to impossible to keep such a cut straight on though...i put some of that BLACK door guard molding across the hood...actually gives it a nice look.


Now...my wheels...I want to buy new ones..but im broke...lol..so i got some old OZ wheels i was messing with...


the GOLD is how i painted them last time..the Black with POLISHED lip i just did today....the car will painted black. Now reason im hesitating on leaving the rims GOLD is because a boy of mine already has a setup like that on his Protege (the one with the WRX hood scoop)...but i dunno what do u guys think??????


and just for kicks..i also painted this at some hiphop jam this weekend


Keep you posted...

Dude it's coming out nice.

I like the black with polished lip better then the gold rim.

[beetle_orange]

yeah i like the black with polished lip as well.

[Marc93lx]

Dood that's just sick! And I agree with the black wheels.

[BuGS]

I like the gold ones. I got gold rims and I think they are actually pretty awesome. They stand out a little bit more and when I beat ppl or do the BOV to them the gold rims makes it all that much cooler

[Intruder]

I like the gold ones.

[mike_moss]

gloss black wheels = hawt

[D323]

badass job on that hood d00d. That is sweetness.

I like the black, but the gold still has some appeal to it, and I am not usualy a fan of gold rims.

[VelBurg]

Go with the gold... I have bronze rims on mine and I like the way they stand out.. I would go gold if I could find a decent set..

[mazdaboy1974]

That is awesome i'd go with the polished lip too.
