Default New hood and grill

i had picked up an 06 hood to replace the cheap 03-05 aftermarket someone stuck on my truck a while back, and i hadnt had the money to have it painted and installed, and then this happened and i just happened to have the money so i guess it was meant to be.
Before


so the weather started to get cold around here and you all know how things expand and contract... well i walked outside to see this.


the new hood and grill much much better!

Holy crap, who painted that hood! Glad that you got that taken care of, the new stuff looks good I agree that a color matched bowtie would look sweet.

Yes looks much better Anthony. It needed that hood and grill for awhile. Damn whoever painted that first hood did not prep it very well at all...

So whats next on the agenda?

Thanks for the compliments guys. i hadnt thought of colormatching the bowtie, i was thinking of getting a billet one. as for whats next on the agenda i havent decided yet but i think it will be either to lose these spindles in favor for the djm lca's or shift kit and servos.

I say paint the honeycomb black, and colormatch the bowtie. Billet doesn't look bad, but I like the contrast of the blue better.
