    Too much?

    I had my hoof up the other day and I could tell my paint was fading a lot faster than I thought. What used to be a little 'H' in the center of my hood now extends from one end to the other...

    But Ive been looking into painting it... With chalkboard paint. nice big canvass if you think about it.



    Eventually it might turn into something like this:

    Personally I like it. With those keystones it will pull it off nicely IMO.

          Actually the trunk could use it too. I was thinking about it to balance out the look.

          If I went the blues mobile route it would be black and white with the plate number BDR 529.

            I think a black hood on a silver car looks good, but I would save up and get a full painjob like that. Maybe only do the center section of the hood in black.

              Id only have to save enough for the rattle cans lol. I did another version with just the center section and something doesnt look right about it. I think its the massive depth of the header panel.

                Go for it then, I think it looks kickass. It reminds me of like a Duster 340 with the matte black hood and hood script, Maybe you could stencil on "302 H.O." in silver or white.

                  Yes, just like the mopars!

                  Of course, I would do the entire car like that, but that's me...

                    Eventually it would be the whole car, but the paint on the sides is still in great shape its just the top surfaces the sun has killed.

                            Eh, I don't like it.

                            And I don't know what kind of paint you're buying, but if it can turn a Merc into a Nissan, you best pick a different brand.
