Awesome.
will you have them paint the center section of the hood black, as well as the inner part of the grill?

Re: Blackmachdown Buildup thread updated 05/01

I wouldn't think that that would cost that much extra. The black paint can't be very expensive compared to the red... unless they would be painting everything red, then going back over it with black... but that just seems a little silly.

You should just pay the $225. They paint the black on, then clear over it.
Unlees you do Body paint yourself

Re: Blackmachdown Buildup thread updated 05/01

if i can do paint and body myself i would have painted it :crazy2: but the reason why i want to hold of is because one i want a flat black (i can spray that myself) and two i might switch to a different hood later on

anyways another update

Alright these are as of today The car has fresh paint on it!!
