How did you attach it to the trunk lid? And how did you determine shape/size of the hardboard?

thanks maniac :)

i had to drill some holes and i held it up with plastic screw rivets ;)
first i traced it on poster paper and trimmed it until it looked right, then traced it on the hardboard and cut it with the jigsaw :thumbsup:

Cool! Sounds easy enough to do. That's a future project for my Monte (one of a few).

[quote=Franks 03SS;384850]i plan on having it covered in suede, and a bowtie layer in the center :)
with the bowtie raised about 1/2 inch with red Led's behind it :cool: i want something basic that doesnt stand out too much
i'll be using 1/8 thick hardboard so it wont weigh a ton :p
as some of you may know i made one for my previous monte lol, turned out "alright" but that was my first. i hope this one comes out much better since i know what im doing now :)

here's the one i made haha
i should've kept the paper template! dang it! :(

printed each S on a piece of paper, cut them out... taped them together... placed the SS on the hardboard... traced it and finally cut it out :thumbsup: haha
then a piece of hardboard wrapped in red vinyl was placed behind the main hardboard with staples and some glue to make the SS stand out in red :)
