nice..more pics! :thumb:

so u cut the carbonfibre hood?how did you know where to cut it?
 
one more THIS guy LOL.....I sat in my car looked in my rear view mirror and this dude was rollin down the street.....3 rifles 1 camo lawn chair , leaf like camo netting and all out combat gear LOL even his face was painted LOL :laugh: as for the cutting i drew out the shape you see because it was as big as i could go to be semetrical and then taped it up to the underside and drilled little holes along the edge of the paper (maybe like 90 holes all the way around) and the dremmle got the thin pieces out between each hole.....smoothd the edges with the dremmle and put the weather stripping around the edge mounted the mesh and there it is. I was scared messing with the Carbon Fiber but the Drilling works best if anyone ever does anything like this. good for hood pins . :thumb:

when you put your hand over the opening, can you feel the mani & turbo heat rising?
the mesh cover, is it water proof? if not, during a rainy day, do you see steam evaporating?

just curious.
 
sexehtopper, that cat is human size.
not a road kill, more like a trick or treater in a cat custom.
