You are a master painter but I just wish that I had the patience to do that. With in an hour I would said screw this it is going to be straight and square.

I finally got around to spraying the black and clear on my cowl today. I was going to do it yesterday, but got talked into putting a drive axle in one of my brothers cars in the afternoon and it turned into a real pain.

That looks absolutely great nice work. And I looked as hard as can at the pictures to see if there was any bleed on the taping could not find one that's good. Like to know how you did that please give a small how to on that. Thanks.

For most of the cowl I used 3M blue painters tape and cut my squares out with a sharp X-Acto. Those lines turned out pretty nice. The front edge was done with blue Fine Lines tape masked by hand, and the results weren't quite as good. The good thing was I was able to take an X-Acto and very carefully scrape the tiny screw ups and straighten out everything.
