For those of you who dont know, I found this hood on craigslist for $100. I went and picked it up today.
The scoop is silver and since i have no silver on my truck, im gunna paint the silver flat black. the rest of the hood is in pretty good shape, and i think a good buffing will bring it back to almost new condition.
question is, when i paint the flat black, do i put clear coat over it? I dont want it too shiney, but i want a smooth, protected surface. and im gunna do it with a spray can... think it will turn out ok?

does anyone know what kind of hood this is?

 

wow thats a sweet hood

 

i think you can buy a matte clear coat in a can, and that hood looks really nice for 100$

 

ya man thats an awesome hood for 100 bucks! im thinkin before you paint it flat black (correct me if im wrong guys) to possibly sand down the silver area?

 

$100 damn. Good find is it a functional hood or just a scoop?

 

i cant believe u got a srt hood for 100. very nice man!!

 

yeah you wanna tape off the black parts you wanna keep and rough up the silver b4 you shoot the flat black, and you have to put clear over it or every time you wash it the black will rub off, i dont think it would be shiny but try it on somethin els if your curious, and x6 on the damn nice hood for $100

 

srt-10 hood definitely,i just got the same hood from dodge for 850 including shipping and ins. and 300 to paint it black,consider yourself GOLDEN......lucky bastard

 

thats a sweet deal! you can buy matt clear. its hard to find at most places, and I dunno how a spray bomb clear would look. but its worth a shot on a 100 dollar hood lol

 

leave it silver and get a silver bed stripe
