DB8 Whore
Looks good man! At least it's a VIS one and not no name brand crap! Looks like it just needs a good clear coat from what I can tell. Not bad for $45!

Nope, doesn't have the decal or the same crack patterns, also has holes for hood pins and an issue on the passenger side from an accident, so unless your car was in an accident, they got rid of your spider cracking and got new ones and got hood pins, I doubt it lol. The label is also placed differently, where it really should be :p

Well, plans changed, parents are making me keep it (their roof, their rules). Got bored and decided to paint the POS carbon fiber hood checkerboard and touch up my horrendous wiper blades. Here's the results :) All un edited pictures the next 2 posts... And I am aware there are holes in the hood, I didn't bother fill them in because I got lazy and didn't feel like I'm THAT good with Bondo lol. Hood pins on the way to fill em in come payday (wouldn't do it if I didn't have to :p )... Enjoy!

The process:

Bondo work





Sanded down




My weird Candian friend helping me primer it :lol:




Messed up wiper blades





After :mrgreen:





First and second coats of white





And that's all I took with my camera, I'll post a couple pics of the masking and black from my phone...
