Added some red pins to the hood hasht, a black stripe on the sides and recreated the hood hash mark on top of that. (Hard to see the matt to gloss)

I use this paint at work a lot and because this product was primed to begin with i figured i would give it a shot.

Now that its dry its insanely durable, i have probably 15 coats of paint on it. Clear vinyl wrap this weekend to help it through the winters.

Finally installed my oem Goodyears mounted on my spare, powder coated wheels. Removed them with maybe 120 miles on them, back in November.

My ZL-1 addons , pad worked perfectly!
