msarahlex got the closest I ended up stripping it and sanding it right down to the bare steel. Thank God for no rock chips or dings, otherwise this idea would not be possible.



From here, I let the artistic juices flow and bring my vision to life to bring you guys something completely fresh





After repainting the center and adding the clear coat, my dream was finally a reality I added a little bit of black paint to the clear coat, to give it a little more smoked look.



Some people will like it and some will hate it. But that's the fun part about a true BUILD. Innovate, create and bringing your concept to life.

Forgive the dark photo. I picked up the car this past Saturday at 9pm from the body shop to bring it down to the Hot Import Daze in Monroe, WA the next day. In the sun it really shines. I'll try to snap some today



Oh right...... and also I got a Mode Parfume Phantom full body kit and exhaust

Nice! Similar to koukimonster's hood on his q only in reverse. Ties the interior and the exterior together well. Love the mp and the fact that you went with their quads!

I am one of the likers.
Looks like two tone paint job but when you see it up close it's even better.

Thanks guys. Ya Kouki Monster did only the center and high polished. I thought about going that route too, but instead having it straight brushed. But then thought to myself it may look too Rolls Royce like. Plus I thought the brushed gives it a little more custom touch (like you can tell its done by hand) and the way it shines gives it a little more definition. I had to have the exhaust opening widened to accommodate the quads. Absolutely LOVE the end result.

Took my conservative tastes a minute to warm up to the hood but I gotta say I like it; looks great, ties into the other accents on the car, and outside the box! Stepping things up again, well done!
