New Look for '08!!!!
Wednesday, April 23, 2008 6:55 PM
Just got the hood and the bumper back from paint, the hood is changed from the flat clear of last year to the paint and glossy clear. I got the bumper and lip last year and just rattle canned it till I could get it painted. Also the wheels are new since last year. 17s instead of the old 18s much lighter and handles a lot better with them. There is also some other changes that I will add some pics of this weekend when I get out and do a nice photoshoot. But I just got the bumper and hood installed and couldn't wait to post pics!

Last year







New Look!







Comments welcome!

no offense (and it could just be the lighting) but i BELIEVE the hood color to not match the rest.

glad, so glad... you went to a gloss clear though. design looks good to, great job.



Rollin' on question marks since 07.

Thanks! It is just the lighting, in person the color is just about right on, its a tad lighter but I couldn't ask for anything better. Even the guy that painted it, that has lots of experience painting, said that he was happy with the match. We all know that a body guys eye when it comes to paint is much better than the average persons. He also kept the paint line right in the middle of the curve that is right there on the hood.

Also sorry but no more pics of the rims, yet. The camera was misbehaving, as long as the weather cooperates I am planning on taking it for a nice shoot this weekend. There is a few other changes that you can't see in these pics unless you really look...

Also the compliment from the SCC ride of the month means a lot!

Thanks!

I was talking with my paint guy when he dropped this stuff about shaving some stuff and really wants to do it but I have a few other things I want to upgrade first so maybe later.

I decided to paint the sides of the hood because the edges where starting to getting pretty cloudy.

Again check back this weekend there will be better and clean pics!

Also Megatron I want your wheels, I love those wheels!

Thanks!

In person the color is almost dead on. The car is dirty in the pics and the hood is nice and clean so that could have something to do with it.
