Rising Sun Hood Blackout

Looks great Mark! Can't wait to check this out in person.

I have a feeling some of the guys from Colorado will want to copy this design.

I'm headed to San Felipe for the SCORE Baja 250 to cheer on and help team MasterCraft Safety.

Sounds fun. Have a great time. I am doing our crossings (both directions) at Tecate instead of San Ysidro or Otay now.

Your hood has me inspired to do something nearly as cool. I can not just do your rising sun (in grey), as my paint is wonky in much of that center raised section.

On the way back we will be crossing at Tecate. Last year there was a total of one car in line, but for some reason I don't think we will be as lucky this year.....

awesome Mark! Well done.

I had my apprehensions when you first posted this Mark, but I must say it looks way cool, ! Great job!

 

[Bluetribal]

Yeah, I had apprehensions too that's why I wussed out and didn't go with a matte red.

Looks great Mark.
Congrats on the 'junkyard find'!

Looks really cool. I'm lovin it!

Thanks guys, it looks like it held up to it's first Baja trip. It really is very subtle and you hardly even notice it, but I also didn't notice any sun glare this weekend.....

That looks so good Mark! I didn't realize you designed it yourself, great idea. It is hard to come up with something new that hasn't been done before so kudos to you brother!

 

[Bluetribal]

Thanks Mo!
I have to admit I was inspired after seeing a photo of the white Supra with the red rising sun on the side of it. Then in the decal thread that Dspan posted I saw a rising sun with a TEQ logo in the sun and it hit me.

The hood decal survived its first freeze up in Big Bear this weekend.

Nice! So it survived baking in Baja and freezing in Big Bear.
