^This was my 1st fiberglass project ever lol. Just went to autozone and bought a fiberglass repair kit and used about half of it. Pretty simple stuff. Only reason I didnt do double is b/c I didnt have the money for 1 extra gauge lol

^thanks man. Some people dont like color matched interiors, and i have seen alot of overdone interiors, i htried to do it somewhat clean in that it removes the silver trim, without adding any yellow over existing black pieces. Where some poeple pop off vents and paint them and their whole shifter assembly and shift boots and gauge cluster and whatnot.

im trying to get my hands on a black cobalt hood. not Carbon fiber, but just black and i wanna paint the sides of it yellow. Im taking painting and refinishing in college to getting my autobody degree and we got some legitimate paint guns, a 40k downdraft paint booth and all.

In a few weeks im gonna sand down and redo my rims with real etching primer and autobody paint instead of duplicolor. Then depending on how well I can match the paint color, i wanna repaint my front bumper to get the rock chips out, and do the black pieces like I have now, and then clear the whole thing so theres no longer a Height difference in the 2 paints.

But trust me im looking for **** to paint everyday. I love changing the look up and keeping it fresh
