The front is not too disimilar from my S2K (http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?threadid=62018&highlight=s2k+project) , its best to use plastic card for this.

Looks pretty good so far. :DOriginally posted by TURBO_EK4

You can use the back of an xacto knife with a straight edge and scribe some lines where you want the breaks to be, and the plastic *should* snap right at those lines.... but it can be tricky. Leave yourself a margin for error, then you can sand the edges back to where they should be.
