Bumber painting? and hood?
My hood is filled with rock (look like boulder) chips and I was thinking of fixing them and just leaving the whole hood primer cause I am not going to pay to paint it until I can do the whole car. How will this look do you think? crappy or not so bad?
Also, what about painting my bumper? What paint should I use? And what steps should I take? I want to paint my bumpers black just to get rid of the faded grey and make them look better. Thanks!

Dontcha just love room-mates?
So, I took off my hood when I installed my fiberglass Cervini's hood, and put the old one in my garage... In my garage, I've got a pool table and a dart-board. The other day, this chick that lives with me was in a pissy mood, so she went out to the garage and was chucking darts at the dartboard really hard. Problem is: she SUCKS at darts even when she's in a good mood, and now I've got about 7 bigass dings in my old hood. I was planning on selling it, but now it's all dinged up
