Painted and installed the Border Racing Vent Hood.

I picked up a used Border Racing hood that been painted gunmetal a few weeks ago.

My car is getting an full paint job by a pro shortly and so I took the time to try to learn to paint. and I wanted to get a preview oh how the vent would look. I painted the hood the same green as my Infini and painted the inlay area of the air vent black. Its kinda hard to see in the pictures, but its easy to see in person.

We mixed up some paint and it color matched with no problems.

odd looking hood, should cool well though.

no more hood pins?

Not required, but I have some flat ones on order and will install them when the car gets painted again

im not a fan of the hood, but im assuming its for practicality for vmount setup?

The jdm whore in me is insanely jealous

Great looking car! Question for you, what rear skirts do you have on your car? They look very nice and flow well with the car and the stock look.

awesome hood looks nice, and I am wanting your cosmo

just a little to agressive for me but not bad at all!

Looks real nice.

not exactly my stylr but its well done and pretty clean. you say thats your first paintjob? or did the pro do all of it?

I like it!

Looks like it fits well too

i honestly like the stock hood, since its an infini and all. sortve the holy grail of FCs.

you no tamper!

:spew::rlaugh:

looks nice... talkin about the cosmo behind your FC :)

yup it was my frist time to do it. I only painted the hood to get some hands on. he is going to paint the whole car and hood again

Dont worry I have a 2nd Infini IV in the works.............

whats wrong with it? looks fine to me. your hood job looks very clean and the rest of the car is fairly good.

you need to see in person. the hood has a few low spots you can see that filled and sanded. This was just a test. this weekend im dropping the hood off at his shop, they want to get started on it. also the FEED lip, side skirts, and spare rear bumper I have then in 2 weeks I should drop the whole car off and they will paint it all together.
