As u may or may not see from the picture the Hood is way off..... I don't know why it is so tweaked. Also the body shop did a sub-par job of installing..... The paint is horrible and he didn't paint the doors to match (it isnt that noticable) the reason why I accepted the car back the way it was, was because they had my car for like 2 months and I really needed my car back (To go to work to pay for this beast). Within that two months I repeatedly visited and asked them to fix many blemishes and imperfections, such as the paint bubbles all over, and the dent they made when they took it out for a joy ride! All in all if I had to do this all over again I wouldn't have bothered this project was a nightmare!

sounds like you went to MAACO or one of their subsidiary companies... sorry to hear about that, but so you know no matter what anyone says, it's not easy to match our paints, talk to those with COBALT blue tibs... smile.gif this is why I'm repainting my car completely it's the only way to go when doing a body kit install...

{I'd comment on your car, but the link isn't working now.}
I hate to take this off subject.. but I happen to have a COBALT Tib. Had the front bumper, hood, driver side fender,door , and my top rear spoiler painted by a VERY good, very PRICEY local shop. I've not heard anyone tell me it doesn't look right.
I think they did a fantastic job @ color matching this car (ask Random and Jaws021,Redzman, Kate, etc. they've seen it). Too bad the shop's out here in Podunk Arkansas.
