Hood Blackout Question
« on: July 04, 2007 - 05:16:31 PM »
When you black out the hood, does the black out cover the top, sides and the bottom, or top and sides, or just the top? :working:

I think he's talking about totally blacked out, like the AAR's.

I mean like this, does the black usually extend to the sides and the bottom?

The factory blacked out the whole hood as well as the top of the cowl, the radiator support and the top area of the fenders where they bolt on.  The sheer panels and firewall remained the body color
