    Thank you and I’ll snap some pics when I get home from work. I was thinking it might even be kinda neat to scan the full size image and then I could send the file to anyone who wants it. That way it could be printed out and easily copied.

    That sounds awesome! From what I can see in the pics, yours look different than the commercially available ones and are super-clean and factory-looking (I'm sure your welding skills have a lot to do with that too). I'd love a printable template. My Hypertherm is standing by!

    Also...what did you re-coat the CMC with? That looks factory, too.

    Thanks!

    Interested to get some CMC done from a local. Hit the surf, grab a burrito or sandwich (el pescador), then drink some brews. No joke. Your work looks great.

    The reason I made my own templates was so I could make the work look almost factory. There is a Rustoleum satin black that matches the OE frame paint almost perfect.

    Thank you... I can be persuaded for the right price, it just takes time to give it the factory look
