Front End Conversion. B3 to B4

[Audicted]

Kevin found me a sweet B4 hood here in helena so we purchesed that. The only downside was now i needed new headlights, a grille, and the underlight trim. I had just bought my B3 E Codes and they had only been on my car for maybe a month at the max then I had to buy some B4 E codes. The headlights arrived about a week ago and so now i'm still looking for a B4 grille and the underlight trim.

I'll post some pictures up about the hood and the sanding process that i screwed up on just a little

My baby as she is now


This is the color of the hood. It might not look much different but it looks really orange in the sun cause its gold flaked


Front end of the B4 hood


Left side of the hood, I will upload pictures of the sanding process later.

Yeah it has been a pain in the butt, when its finished though i will look great! I was only supposed to take the clear coat off and scruff up the red paint but while wetsanding it just kept getting lower and lower. Turns out that it goes clearcoat, red, green, black, white, metal.

Thank you! The spray paint cans that we used matched PERFECTLY! It turned out amazing. I'm very pleased with how it turned out. Also it was a learning experence along the way and its a good skill to have
