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

 

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

 

super easy! just takes time and patience like everything else

 

Hooray!! i got a new username! Thanks Taz!!

 

very nice. you are quite the DIYer haha

 

[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 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!

That looks great... How did you make the template for the SS?... Thanks,

 

I was wondering why you didn't have a trunk mat yet :p

It's gonna look great! Can't wait to see the pics

 

haha thanks
i do try to save money and i like to have fun doing 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 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

haha thanks man

 

if you want, i've got the template from when i made mine. can send it if you want . . .

 

That would be great.. Can you send me one?... Thanks,
