What I did on my cousin's truck was spray middle portions first and edges last... that way the edges are all wet... then remove painters tape. You will get a nice clean line if you peel the tape off while the paint is wet.

OK so it turned out pretty good I think:

Plastidip Hood-Bra - Imgur

The job overall came out pretty darn good(especially since I was drinking wild turkey while doing it)- I will keep it.

From a distance you can barely tell it is there. You can see some irregularities in the grain(despite my best attempt). But I have noticed with plastidip after a bit of exposure to sun/washing, those irregularities eventually smooth themselves out.
