Hood Liner
Just completed with the hood liner. It not a nice as Paula's work, but will have to do for now. My intentions, sometime down the road, is to purchase one from her. I did this all free hand using Testor's Model paint and two different brushes. I started Friday night and completed the project last night. I am still not completely satified, but will ave to do for know. Another project completed. Next is brake calipers and some addtional bling for the motor compartment. I will post pics as soon and photobucket completes working on their site.

Not to hijack but have you guys noticed rub marks on the hood liner from maybe the air bridge ,and I have one from something in the area of the wiper blades.These are getting worse ,I don't know if maybe my liner is hanging low or something.

Mine may have rubbed just a little with the stock air bridge, and certainly with some aftermarket ones it can, but I have never noticed anything around the wiper

Looks great. I took mine to a local art shop here in Pittsburgh and had it done. They sprayed the entire liner with a fresh coat of black and then airbrushed the logo. They charged me $35 and they had it for 2 days. I was afraid to try it myself.
