cool but who did the cutting on your hood?

Looks like they used a knife... You really need to use a dremel on the edges and corners. Did he even use one?

It looks like the edges of the cuts are warped from probably to abrasive of a blade. Judging from the reflections.... Could just be the images.

Anyways props to the original look.

Yup they are a bit wobbley where the turns were made, No clue on how to straighten them out. Wont matter much as this will be hidden by the Matte finish.
