That hood though...

[Back N Black]

Very nice, 

[RKCHARGER]

Personaly I like the hood lol!  There are two more donor hoods on the way so I can try other things.  The paint code is for the 2014 challenger plum crazy.

Updated photos.

Still needs to be wet sanded again and another layer of clear put on but close to done!!

That hood though...

Thats a Chebby hood

Other wise your car looks awesome

[RKCHARGER]

Looks better on the charger than the Chebby 

[ottawamerc]

Oh 100% on that!    Keep some spare paint and maybe some day you will find a "suitable" hood but in all honesty GREAT job on it man keep it up

Thanks Scott!

  looking good

[Indygenerallee]

Paint looks fantastic.... but im still  on the hood!!

I personally like a well done cowl hood. Yours is well done. Not too "pro" all way tall, but just enough to give it that look.
very well executed with the hood intentions.  

Haters gonna hate, but I'd cruise it. I'd also run a GM 1 wire.

to all the cowl hood haters, the one that is going on my car is for a 70 roadrunner.   

[Indygenerallee]

Yeah Charlie but that's a Mopar scoop!! 

[cdr]

It's alomost there!!!!! Last round of wetsanding and polishing before the last layer of clear goes on.  It really is starting to look incredible in person, photos don't do it proper justice.

Whats the purpose/reason for wet sanding & rubbing before the last coat of clear goes on? LEON.

[RKCHARGER]

Leon, to be completely honest I do not know  . Maybe the guy is trying to charge me more labor lol.... My understanding is that he has done this after each layer of paint and/or clear. Reason I was told is that he wants each layer to be as smooth as possible, the end result being the deepest smoothest possible paint. So far im amazed  and it looks insane in person, its almost like looking into a purple mirror so im not going to argue with him about his process. All I can say is im totally blown away. It may be completely unnesseccary but based on results, however he wants to do it is perfect by me.
