As stated, no long details here, what do you all think? Also what do you think of the front of my Accent compared to the all blue front as seen in my Sig pic? It still needs a clear coat and finish.

hooray for finally being done eh.



Use GIMP, Paint is good for nothing. Figure out how to halfway use GIMP and this is 5 minutes' work including waiting for the program to load:

I like the all blue better IMO. Although I was thinking about painting my hood flat black??????? IDK.



Is it just me or does your car look "mean"?

No she is mean cuz I have beet the pis out of her for about 250,000 miles lol, if your talking about the pic in my sig, the rear was up in the air making the front look lower to the ground, then I used windos paint to stretch it a bit for a wider look, rest of the pics atre standard.

It definitely looks better than all black. Dude it would look good either as is, or with the black part of the bonnet. I'd probably leave it because it's less work and there'd be less chance of someone not liking it.





Also, +1 on GIMP. It's a fantastic free program, that even I can use. It's some good sh*t.
