no it's my license plate, i thought so too when i saw the picture. they only had 5 aleros,(junkyard) and one was my color, but the hood had a big rust hole in it. all of the others had massive dents or really bad rust. so i took the only decent looking one. but i know what you mean about how it looks kinda funky.

I'm just being an ass. I know how it is when money is tight. Looks to be in much better condition. When you get it painted it prob wont match the fenders perfectly but hey....it's better than the other hood that's for sure.

in the mean time, you could always plasti-dip the hood black so it blends in better! Much more affordable for someone on a budget

My plasti-dipped wheels have been pressure washed plenty of times and they still look the same as the day I sprayed 'em back in March.

I'm actually gonna plasti dip my whole car. Maybe like 3 weeks from now, I'm curious on how it's gonna look on my car. But I have rusted out quarter panels in front of my rear wheels. Due to the damn Rochester salt around here durning winter. But I need to get that fixed before I plasti dip it. Otherwise it would look dumb.
