    Hey guys, had the day off today and got bored, so I wanted to do a small project that I've wanted to for a while now...painting my foglight display. Here's pics of the progress on it.

    I decided against taping everything off and spraying it because the tape wouldn't stick right with all the grooves. So I just got some cardboard, sprayed the paint on there and used a brush to PAINT the color on. I think it looks great, and in the light it has an awesome brushed aluminum look to it!

    I'm definitely glad I did this simple mod...I try to do one small thing before every show that I go to. Let me know what you all think!

    Looks good man keep it up. Painted fogs make our front ends look even more aggressive. You should make yourself a progress thread so its easier for members to follow your progress.

    I do have one suggestion. The front end is looking a little uneven. You have the black lines running up the side with the blue mitsu emblem. The blue is kind of standing out a lot it doesnt seem to flow with the rest of your color scheme. I would keep it black if i were you thats just my suggestion.
