I got my hood powder coated and installed back on my car. It turned out a little lighter then I thought it would be but actually looks pretty good. It cost me 90 bucks for them to take the paint off and then powder coat it. Tell me what you all think of it.

 

it looks like u have a lot of dents in your hood. And its a turbo hood on an NA...Nice blue throttle body elbow, it matches the air filter and fan shroud nicely

 

nice.

 

its hard to tell by the pics, is it bumpy paint? thats kinda what i see, cool idea though

 

what is the advantage to powder coating the hood? I dont see or understand the benefit?

 

Rallycross?

 

Yeah there are some dents in it, but whats perfect in this world most of them i have noticed is the indention from the bottom layer of the hood. Probably from when they baked it.

 

The advantage to powder coating say like for the hood is that its alot harder so it wont chip from rocks as easy or at all, so I have been told. It also should not fade either from what I am told, so we will see.

 

why not go all the way and get LINE-X or Herculiner or something?

 

Yeah do me a favor, go ahead and try that for me and then let me know how it turns out and I might just do that next time.

 

I used LINE-X on my jeep floor pan, looks great. And it doesn't fade or chip.
