Unreal Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Got the hood painted. Funny how it looks like the new z06 hood before that was even out for pictures. I'm sure people are going to think I copied that. Painter has been awesome. If anyone needs paint work this guy is the man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOTV8 Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Should look killer on the car, will you also be doing the skirts in carbon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChadC Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 cant wait till its on the car!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unreal Posted January 13, 2014 Author Share Posted January 13, 2014 Should look killer on the car, will you also be doing the skirts in carbon? One day, but looks stuff is last on my list. Still plenty of other stuff to do first. This was done for cooling, wheels where done for traction. I would be happy with a stock looking car still. Got to get the new headers on, new tranny in, new pulleys on, and some other stuff. Hopefully it doesn't take too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unreal Posted January 13, 2014 Author Share Posted January 13, 2014 I'm sure. Temps dropped 15-20F and it isn't even hot yet. You can see the heat pouring out of the vents driving everywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desertdawg Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Dude, it looks like you tried to copy the C7Z hood.... someone had to say it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unreal Posted January 13, 2014 Author Share Posted January 13, 2014 I knew that was coming. I picked this out and it was painted long before those photos came out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ted Y Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 How is the edge between the new silver paint and the old carbon fiber? Is there an edge or did they spray over the carbon fiber with new clear coat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unreal Posted January 14, 2014 Author Share Posted January 14, 2014 The whole hood was sanded down, painted, then recleared. Waiting on wet sand and buff. Haven't seen it in person but there will be no edge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Looks great. I'm going to see about just adding vents to my stock hood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

old yeller Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 I like that you left some of it black / carbon fiber. Is the silver just a shade off or is it the picture? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unreal Posted January 21, 2014 Author Share Posted January 21, 2014 Just picture and maybe the fact that I put 3-4 coats of wax on rest of car but none on hood until paint is settled. Painter said wait 2-3 weeks before putting any wax/sealant on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cross Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Looks good, it was only just now I put your user name with the Facebook profile I saw this under.... I am really bad at remembering things, it must be the Mad Cow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
