Hood Blackout decal?

[Tiller420]

Couple of Questions.. (THIS IS ISOTEL, Sorry Wrong Login )

Im thinking it should start at the top of the small curve on the hood (39 3/4" would be the back of hood measurement), this is 1.25" in from the main body line.. Sound good??

Another one is Length of 2/3 blackout i was going to go with 30", its a bit less than 2/3. I would also put a little 2" radius on the front edge of the 2/3 ones..

The other issue is Washer nozzles.. If i make the cutouts they will have to be a little bit wide, if i don't do the cutouts you will need to remove the washers, then make your own hole with an exacto (this will look cleaner IMHO)

 

[NLXTACY]

Im in as well

BTW, I dont mind cutting the nozzle area myself to make it look cleaner. Prefer the longer version.

I too would prefer not to have cut-outs for the washer nozzles and I'll just make them myself as you said by removing the nozzles and then making the cut-outs.

Too late to get in? Count me in for one full length! (check PM's)

 

[Isotel]

not too late, and i will do some extra!
Got your PM, Added you to the list!

 

[MoGas]

What is the estimated cost? I want to get in, but I don't want to commit if it is going to be too expensive.

 

[Isotel]

At this point, The 2/3 ones will be about $65 and the Full length ones about $80.. (they should not be any more than this, possibly less)

The prices are not finalized because i still need to balance out how many people are committed with the amount/Type of vinyl that i buy. Ill have a Final # including shipping in a couple of days!

 

[MoGas]

I can be down for a full length without squirter holes.

I just came into this but I'm trying to figure out the 2/3 vs full. Is the full similar to the painted hoods on posts 24 &25?

 

[Isotel]

Ok, Ive got the Cad Work done, If you would like to double check my measurements, or suggest any changes, let me know.. Im going to double check the #'s tonight on Tiller's LX450..

EDIT: Ive put up New #'s reflecting the changes, now the graphic will end about 1/2" from the start of the "bulge" in the hood, I also Put a small kink in the front of the hood where it starts to curve, this is because of the way the body lines end up and the fact that the hood is curved up in the center on top, but flattens out as it curves down..

They will be 1/2" long on the edge of the hood, This is so you can either wrap the vinyl around and stick it to the inside, or use a Blade to trim off the extra

Full Length will look like this

2/3 Length will look like this

30" just did not look right

 

[FJason80]

Bump to the top. Ive got to get some more people in on this to make it happen!

I like the 2/3 one myself, but i will have to buy a roll of 48" anyway for the guys that want the full one. Ive got to at least Cover my cost for materials, so i need 5+ People!

I'd be in fosho!

In your drawing back up above, the blackout follows the lines in the hood--more trapezoidal-- but these (photoshops I'm assuming) don't look like they really do that. It's throwin me all off. I don't like either one of the shorter ones... What about a ~40" one? Any way to do that? I may have to get the long one and then just cut it to my own length... Hmmm.

[MoGas]

And I'd like mine to go to the creases of the hood bulge

 

[MoGas]

Actually, looking at the others, it just goes over the curve at the top of the bulge.

The images of the full length from the 2nd page of this thread show a blackout that comes down to cover all but the last 1/2 inch of the bulge. I would prefer that. I know it is not possible to make everyone happy if we all want different things. I am just putting in my $.02. I prefer no squirter holes. I'll cut them out myself.

I'm cool with the bulge coverage as well...
