yea, it look like someone had set something on it, which slid off and gouged the hood, i was planning on tu- toning it anyways so then i figued i would do that and have airbrushed graphics break up the paint scheme. my friend that did it was only supposed to do a small lower pannel of graphics between the two doors, but she went a little crazy and hit up the whole thing. well w/ that being said, knowing the vehicle would be down for a few weeks, i pulled all the interior out of it, including door pannels and had them hit up w/ indigo blue suede inserts. im so psyched to get it done, ill have nice photos when its cut and buffed, but i was wanting all you guys to check out what was going on w/ it
