From Start To End, Front End Fix 200

Good job! Back on the road, and an excellent learning experience. Now you should have a lot more confidence in your abilities to tackle whatever comes up.

If it were mine, I would get the hood painted to match the rest of the car (get another one if the first replacement was too badly damaged when it flew up---if you're really lucky, you can score one that is already the right color, and save the hassle and $$ of painting it) and the narrow strip below the grill and lights should be gold too. Not the molding (which it looks incomplete without) but the edge of the radiator support/center section panel that shows, which is supposed to be body color. (you might be able to get away with spray canning this area, if you can find a good color match) Getting these two items painted would show off the blacked out grill nicely. As it is it sort of blurs together visually in a shapeless black mass. Get those alloys on, and it will be one sharp looking ride.

Keep up the good work.
