Looks real tight. Nice tuck on the wheel wells.

(Off topic) What did you do to black out the chrome strip on the hood? Paint, powder coat, ... ? How is it holding up and how long have you had it like this?

Heh, you must have missed my "cheap mods" series a few months back

I used black vinyl to wrap the chrome. Picked up like a 10' roll of glossy sign vinyl off of ebay for $15. I've had it on for almost three months with no sign of wear. I just wash it when I'm washing the car, and put on wax like usual.

I was thinking of painting the chrome, but I knew for sure it was going to chip. I even bought an extra strip off of ebay thinking I was going to paint it. But this turned out so well, I just have the extra strip laying around.

I kinda did a half-assed job, and it still looks pretty good. I took shortcuts on the round edges by just cutting and wrapping over. If I had taken the time to use a hair dryer and stretched it, it would look tons better. However, as it is, you can hardly tell unless you're up close.
