Today I did my first two mods! I painted the grab handles a flat black like the other black stock objects, and then I also painted the engine cover!

Tomarrow I'm getting the windows tinted, and more to come SOON!

Let me know what you guys think! I'm oober excited and have soo many mods planned!!
















:D :D :D :D :D

yeah, In black betty I used the sniny black, and I started thinking it looked tacky...but I think the flat black looks like it's stock. I'm really impressed. The pics don't do it justice though...looks alot better in RL..anywho, I can tell you what kind of paint it is in about 15 minutes...

Sarah, where did Black Betty go?

I have no idea. The insurance company took her away. I couldn't keep her after she was totalled.

Well, I got the stuff to black out the turn signals. I think it looks good on the rear of the car, but I think I am going to try and find color matched for the front end...if I can find some color matched vinyl I will also most likely make some eyelids.

Man, it's so hard to match that orange! I found something CLOSE enough. It looks like a perfect match in the photos, but it is off a little bit :-/. I'm thinking about doing eyelids, but I think that may be a little much...




AND YESSS I have moisture stuck in my drivers side headlight. That's the one that was broken..I'm hoping it will go away over time!
