Default New hood liner painted. Love it!

A friend of mine painted this hood liner for me. It is truly amazing what artists are able to do.

A lot of fine detail in that if you look close at it.

Yes, he made the stars and panels look stitched. Which I wasn't expecting. He is known in the custom motorcycle and hot rod community. Super nice guy and very humble.

Honestly that is really well done, and I am not usually a big fan of these murals.

Your friend has some talent and it really does look like the flag is "alive" if you will.

Nice.

Just painted it and cleared it. It takes a lot of paint because the pad soaks it up.
