    Nobody was willing to trade my non scooped 06 hood for the face lifted scooped one. So I've decided to buy a non painted hood and go at it myself. I'm just not sure what paint will match right. My truck is super white, but on Amazon there is a super white 2.. Is there multiple versions of super White paint? Also what clear coat should I use?

    None yet, I have some other stuff I need to get done first. Waiting for some headlights and a grille to come up in my area for a good price before getting a hood
