thanks to Chrysler and there water based paint my hood was all faded and cracked out so i painted it satin black for a quick fix ... here is some pics... hope you like

before

had to put some paint on so it wouldn't rust

wet sanding



primer



i wet sanded again and primer again and again, to get this hot look


boy this hood was not level at all

in the middle of painting


all done



So what do you guys think?.. good/bad lets hear it

 

Looks good. Your "before" pic looks almost like my hood right now.

 

did you put clear coat on it?

 

i think that would look good on mine being its silver and i have alot of black accents already...

but more of my hood is affected

we should sue them for new trucks

 

I can't say I agree with that move. To me, I'd much rather have faded paint than a satin finished hood. I would much rather burn my eye until I could afford to have the hood refinished from a body shop. That's just me.

 

should have went to the grill, good job tho

 

i like it. mine is the same way i need to repaint it plus the wheel wells?right next to it. did you use a spray can or did you use a gun? just wondering because i dont have a gun and it would be sweet if i can just use a can to get that look. nice job though. i think it looks better than lookin at faded peeling (mine) paint.

 

use duplicolor spray can and you can get results like that b/c the spray is wider than a regular can....

 

its more of a fan spray than a regular ( round ) spray right?

 

yeah, it simulates a real gun and from my experience is quality paint, + you can match your truck exactly if you blend it good enough
