Well started cutting the hood today for the Trackspec hood vents. Started off by washing the car so tape would stick to the hood. Figured good time to post a picture of the car with the new spoiler:

Removing the hood really is the easiest way to cut these holes.

Vent holes taped off for cutting:

Had to flip the hood to finish cutting. 95% of everything cut through, but little pieces had to be cut from underneath.

Finally so none of the grey primer, or bare aluminum showed, I taped off everything again, and painted everything black. This will also keep the aluminum from corroding.

I’ll start back up in the morning. So far it seems to be going smoothly.
